Abstract

This paper focuses on healthcare professionals’ non-acceptance, and resistance to the use of wireless communication technology. Specifically, we propose and empirically examine a theoretical model on barriers to the use of wireless communication technology to share information in healthcare settings. Our preliminary findings highlight important factors that, if not addressed, can result in resistance to the implementation of this technology.

Exlporing Healthcare Professionals' Resistance to Using Wireless Communication Technology

This paper focuses on healthcare professionals’ non-acceptance, and resistance to the use of wireless communication technology. Specifically, we propose and empirically examine a theoretical model on barriers to the use of wireless communication technology to share information in healthcare settings. Our preliminary findings highlight important factors that, if not addressed, can result in resistance to the implementation of this technology.
