Development and pilot analysis of the nursing home health information technology maturity survey and staging model.
The purpose of this study was the development, psychometric testing, and analysis of a survey instrument and staging model for nursing home health information technology (HIT). The nursing homes (NH) were selected for inclusion in the study based on their HIT scores from a prior study. Researchers recruited 121 NH administrators from January to May 2019 from primarily for-profit, metropolitan nursing homes with medium bed size. The researchers reported that all dimensions and domains were significantly correlated, with the exception of the variables of integration in administrative activities and HIT capabilities. All items loaded intuitively onto four components, explaining 80% of the variance. The researchers concluded that the HIT maturity survey can be used to make reliable assumptions about nursing home health information technology.
