Abstract

Interventions to improve patient safety, including the integration of technology in clinical practice, require healthcare professionals to change their behavior. This study reports a validated theoretically informed approach to identify challenges to changing nurses' behaviour in order to integrate electronic medication management systems in clinical practice.
