N2 - The COVID-19 pandemic serves as a clarion call to ensure health systems are better prepared to meet future emergencies. Digital Health could play a significant role in preparing health systems to bend and stretch their resources and cope with various shocks by facilitating tasks such as disease monitoring and care delivery. However, the health system’s needs during the crises have not been thoroughly examined from the perspective of health professionals in general and in the Australian health setting in particular. Here we describe the protocol of a qualitative design to learn from frontline healthcare workers’ experiences of the pandemic response that can guide preparation for future crises using digital health.
