Summary
This study found that nurse use, satisfaction, and perceived benefits significantly predict the effectiveness of nursing information systems (NIS). These factors positively influenced workflow and medication safety post-implementation.
Area of Science:
- Health Informatics
- Nursing Informatics
- Information Systems Research
Background:
- Clinical information systems, specifically nursing information systems (NIS), are crucial for modern healthcare delivery.
- Evaluating the success factors of NIS implementation is essential for optimizing their adoption and impact.
Purpose of the Study:
- To investigate key factors influencing nursing information system (NIS) implementation effectiveness.
- To assess the predictive capability of the clinical information systems success model for NIS effectiveness.
- To understand nurses' experiences and perceptions of NIS implementation.
Main Methods:
- A triangulation method combining questionnaires and focus group interviews was used.
- 348 nurses from regional hospitals in Taipei participated via purposive sampling.
- Data were collected 3 and 6 months post-NIS implementation.
Main Results:
- Use dependence, use satisfaction, and net benefits explained 64.5%-89.4% of NIS effectiveness.
- Net benefits demonstrated over 80% explanatory power for NIS effectiveness at 3 and 6 months.
- Nurses reported positive impacts on workflow and medication administration safety.
Conclusions:
- Use dependence, satisfaction, and net benefits are critical predictors of successful NIS implementation.
- NIS implementation positively impacts nursing workflow and medication safety.
- Empirical evidence identifies key factors for successful NIS adoption and highlights user experiences.
