Examining the practical, business side of telehealth and its uptake
Current healthcare delivery systems are rapidly changing, incorporating technological solutions to improve the process and delivery of care. However, most medical professionals are often ill-equipped and less adequately prepared for the consequences of the new technology to their existing practice and routines, resulting to low adoption and acceptance rates. This process-based, qualitative study examines the practice of geriatric medicine via video conference in residential aged care facilities, to understand how professional competence is enacted during the adoption of telemedicine within a new context of care.
