AN EXAMINATION OF NURSES’ ACCEPTANCE OF MOBILE HEALTH APPLICATIONS

Abstract

Purpose: We aimed to examine the relationship between nurses’ views about mobile health applications and acceptance of mobile applications.
Methods: This cross-sectional study was conducted with 321 nurses in a Health Practices and Research Center over the period March-July 2020. Data were collected with the “Personal Data Form” and the “Mobile Applications Acceptance Model (MAAM).”
Results: Among the nurses in the study, 97.2% believed that mobile health applications should be put to more use in the hospitals. The total mean score of the nurses on MAAM was 124.69 ± 15.98, and the highest score (28.78 ± 3.23) among the subscales was in “Needs”. Nurses under the age of 30, those who worked in intensive care units, and those who owned a mobile device exhibited higher total mean scores on the MAAM (p < 0.05). The MAAM total mean scores were higher among those who thought MHA’s should be made more widespread (p < 0.04), who felt that MHA’s were effective in accessing individual health data (p < 0.001), who felt that using MHA’s was easy (p = 0.022), who believed that using MHA’s helped patients access health services without having to come to the hospital (p < 0.001) and who wanted to help patients obtain health services without coming to the hospital (p < 0.001).
Conclusions: Opportunities should be created whereby nurses can use mobile health applications in the hospitals. If this can be achieved, there will be a faster and more improved provision of health services.
