Toward successful eHealth adoption in long-term care: Insights from a national survey of healthcare professionals
HCPs in LTC are positive and motivated to use eHealth. However, several eHealth applications remain underutilized due to barriers such as limited knowledge or poor information and communication technology infrastructure. To optimize eHealth adoption, LTC organizations must address these challenges while continuing to support and educate HCPs. By doing so, the right eHealth products can be optimally used in LTC, which may contribute to sustainable LTC.
