Background: Technology is rapidly, constantly evolving, and affecting healthcare. Nurses are continually challenged to meet demands of learning new skills involving technology while maintaining quality care. Although there are studies looking at nurses' and nursing students' attitudes towards technology in the tertiary care environments, there is very little examination of the perceptions and attitudes of APNs toward this evolving technology. Design: This is a cross sectional study of APNs' (APNs and physician assistants) attitudes and perceptions using a descriptive research design where nominal and categorical data was collected and analyzed using frequencies and Chi-square analysis. Methods: The Information Technology Attitude Scales for Health (ITASH) survey was disseminated to 150 APNs in a large multispecialty, multi-location outpatient health care organization located in northern California. Results: Age, educational level, gender and ethnicity did not contribute any significant differences in the attitudes toward care value of information communication technology (ICT), training of ICT skills, ICT confidence or workload value. However, nurse practitioners (NPs) had higher care value ICT scores compared to certified nurse midwives (CNMs) and physician assistants (PAs). Primary care as a department also scored higher than specialty departments in the care value of ICT factor. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: research tables/charts Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
