Mapping learning and development literature in healthcare organizations: Need for digital health and diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) training

Abstract

Purpose

Mapping the landscape of healthcare education is essential, particularly when examining the prevailing trends in learning and development (L&D) for healthcare workers.

Design/methodology/approach

The Scopus dataset was searched on 25th November 2023 for relevant files, and analysis was done using Bibilioshiny and VOSviewer.

Findings

Artificial Intelligence (AI), Machine Learning (ML), and Deep Learning (DL) are increasingly being adopted in healthcare organizations. Moreover, simulation-based team training enhancing interprofessional communication and sensitizing healthcare workers (HCWs) towards equity, diversity, and inclusion is increasingly reflected in organizations’ L&D practices.

Originality/value

The study identifies prevailing themes in L&D in healthcare organizations in the last decade.
