Implementation Factors for Wearable Fall Injury Mitigation Technology: A Framework for Technology Adoption
Successful technology implementation in LTC requires comprehensive assessment across organizational, staff, and resident domains. The framework developed provides clinical leadership with practical tools for evaluating implementation readiness and targeting interventions. These findings extend beyond fall prevention technology to inform broader health care innovation adoption in LTC settings, supporting the quadruple aim through enhanced resident experience, improved population health outcomes, reduced costs, and decreased caregiver burden.
