Adult education is integrative education right that promotes lifelong learning among adults. It entails education and learning forms, ensuring that adults actively participate in social activities and employment (Caena & Redecker, 2019). The integration of digital technologies has had a profound impact on the global landscape of patient education. In Saudi Arabia, there has been a notable emphasis on embracing digital technologies in healthcare system. The government and educational institutions in the country recognize the importance of incorporating digital tools and platforms into patient education to enhance the quality of care and produce competent healthcare professional. This qualitative study explores the experiences of healthcare providers in Saudi Arabia as they utilize digital health technologies for patient education. Through semi-structured interviews, we delve into the perceived benefits, challenges, and strategies employed by healthcare professional in effectively integrating these technologies into their patient education practices. Our findings reveal a growing adoption of digital health technologies among healthcare providers, who recognize their potential to personalize education, enhance engagement, and improve accessibility. However, challenges such as limited access to resources, technological illiteracy, and data security concerns remain. Healthcare providers emphasize the need for tailored training, user-friendly interfaces, and robust data protection measures to optimize the use of digital health technologies in patient education. Our study provides valuable insights for healthcare providers, policymakers, and technology developers to enhance the integration of digital health technologies into patient education initiatives in Saudi Arabia.
