Acceptability and feasibility of a mobile electronic medical record system for community-based antiretroviral therapy in Lilongwe, Malawi: A rapid qualitative analysis
The study findings underscore the importance of HCD for mHealth buy-in. As HCWs were invested in CARES success, they remained optimistic that the app could enhance NCAP services if user experience and app performance improved. Incorporation of HCW feedback could help deliver the promise of CARES, current and future.
