BACKGROUND: The acceptability of hospital staff in the use of hospital information management system (HIMS) is an emerging research area it can explain the fate of any HIMS development and implementation project in hospitals. The aim of this study was to observe the level of acceptance of HMIS among nursing officials working at a teaching hospital. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This cross-sectional study was conducted for 1 year in a teaching hospital of northern India by using a pretested questionnaire. Our study participants were nursing officers who were not under the probation period and we used a purposive sampling (10% nurses from each ward). Our sample size was 256. RESULTS: We have observed that majority of 174 (67.96%) participants had good acceptability to the HIMS system. Our study revealed that most of the participants were aware of HIMS. Among all participants, nearly half of them had good acceptability to the HIMS system. This is may be due to their job profiles, distribution of their working places, and their past experiences with HMIS. The bottlenecks such as connectivity problem, error prevention, and lack of training can be addressed by the hospital management by proper measures. CONCLUSION: The acceptance level of HIMS among the nursing officials working in a teaching hospital was good. |
