Acceptance of Digital Technology Among Nursing Staff in Geriatric Long-Term Care: Systematic Review
This review shows that the acceptance of digital technologies by nursing staff in geriatric LTC settings is shaped by a constellation of individual factors, such as digital competence and perceived relevance of technology, as well as organizational factors such as access to training and involvement of staff in the implementation process. Despite these insights, the limited number of empirical studies highlights a research gap in this care setting. To ensure sustainable digital transformation in geriatric LTC, future research should prioritize rigorous and participatory approaches, using longitudinal, intervention-based, or multilevel study designs.
