The Health Care department specialities are regulated professions whose training programmes require the graduates to be competent in a number of issues and activities related to their work. The subject of their professional activity is the individual with their health-related conditions. Healthcare specialists draw conclusions in a variety of clinical situations and perform different healthcare procedures aiming to achieve prevention and recovery in a patient’s health. They have to establish a number of practical psychomotor skills in the field of compliant medical and healthcare handling, as well as communication skills for liaising with the patient and their relatives. In addition, the healthcare specialists have to learn how to overcome negative emotions, and to seek balance between the development of their technological knowledge and professional behavior. In the changing profile of healthcare trainees – nurses and midwives, there is a strongly-influenced tendency towards technological development and digital revolution. Video methods are developing educational technologies. They have their own place in the acquisition of healthcare patient-handling and communication skills when they are effectively included within the standard curriculum. This poses a challenge for the academic staff to draw up and provide educational tools and technologies that are liked, and match the students’ contemporary learning styles. It has become necessary for academic staff to withdraw the traditional didactic educational models and to adopt more constructive approaches for greater involvement and participation of the trainees in the educational process.The article justifies the necessity for optimizing education in the healthcare field through implementing e-learning within higher education. This need is driven by the ever-increasing inclusion of information technologies in healthcare, as well as in all other aspects of life. The design and development of e-learning technology and methodology in university contributes to solving great many pedagogical and psychological problems. Implementing information and communication technologies presents us with a new level of mediation for mental and communicative activities of both lecturers and students. Video education has been explored in the current scientific report and an educational cycle is presented in regard to the healthcare experts training. Implementation of social media and its inclusion within the educational process of both midwives and nurses are discussed. The necessity to include video tutorials in the educational process is justified. It is concluded the aforementioned are educational resources which should not be ignored but, on the contrary – they have to be used as complementary educational content within the contemporary education of healthcare experts.

Modern higher education (including pharmaceutical) is inextricably linked with the use of new information and communication technologies in the educational process. In the current conditions, the question arose about the implementation of educational programs in accordance with the federal state educational programs of higher education with the help of mixed (hybrid) training, which involves a combination of traditional (full-time) and distance learning. One of the forms of e-learning used as part of hybrid learning is Learning Management Systems (LMS), created on the basis of Internet technologies. LMS MOODLE is most often used in Russian universities. At Kursk State Medical University, the LMS MOODLE system has been actively used for many years as a platform for distance learning in the organization of continuing medical education courses. At the Faculty of Pharmacy, LMS MOODLE was used in organizing and conducting training practices in botany. To organize and conduct practical training in the LMS MOODLE system, a training course «Educational field practice in botany» was created. For each day, separate sections were organized, in which the necessary information for students was placed. In general, the following LMS MOODLE elements were used to create a training course on educational practice: «SCORM Package», «Test», «Task», «Hyperlink», «File», «Folder», «Forum», «Chat». Analysis of the use of LMS MOODLE showed that this system can be used quite successfully for the organization of the educational process as an element of e-learning and allows you to control the assimilation of educational material.

Since the use of technology in education is considered critical in terms of both teaching and learning, technology integration into instructional methods and teaching environments is a must. This requirement is indispensable for the education organizations at all levels of education, including higher education organizations. The use of instructional technology not only increases the success of the students but also offers many advantages to the academic staff. To benefit from technology for educational purposes, the staff must first adopt the technology and use it to support their teaching and then restructure their teaching experience with technology. The purpose of this study is to investigate the issues in technology integration of academic staff at a Turkish university located in Central Anatolia. Both qualitative and quantitative data analysis techniques were used in this study designed as a correlational survey research. The results showed that the techno-pedagogical competence of academic staff was almost at the advanced level. Moreover, the staff had high level of information and communication technologies (ICT) acceptance so they used technology in their teaching quite often. The participants reported that they used technology during the presentation of slides, and listed their major problems as insufficient infrastructure, limited ICT skills, inadequate technical support, and student- and software- related problems. The findings indicated that it was the daily life experiences of the academic staff rather than the in-service trainings that enhanced their technological and pedagogical skills.
