This study explores how leadership impacts nurses using mobile health (mHealth) technologies. Developing the MOBILE Nurse model helps understand these crucial relationships for better technology adoption in nursing.
Area of Science:
- Nursing Informatics
- Health Information Technology Adoption
- Leadership Studies
Background:
- Leadership significantly influences nurses' adoption of health information technologies.
- The specific role and impact of leadership in this context require further empirical investigation.
- Existing research lacks a developed conceptual framework for leadership in nursing technology adoption.
Purpose of the Study:
- To examine the influence of leadership on nurses' mobile health (mHealth) usage outcomes.
- To develop and propose the MOBILE Nurse conceptual model.
- To empirically explore the relationships between leadership and factors affecting mHealth usage in nursing.
Main Methods:
- Development of the MOBILE Nurse conceptual model.
- Empirical exploration of leadership's influence on mHealth usage.
- Integration of concepts from diverse scientific fields.
Main Results:
- The study established a framework for understanding leadership's role in mHealth adoption.
- Identified key relationships between leadership attributes and nursing mHealth outcomes.
- Provided empirical evidence on leadership's impact on technology usage in nursing.
Conclusions:
- Leadership is a critical, yet underdeveloped, factor in nurses' adoption and use of mHealth.
- The MOBILE Nurse model offers a valuable tool for future research and practice.
- Further research is needed to refine and validate the model in various healthcare settings.
