What are the attitudes of F1 doctors in Prince Philip Hospital towards their use of the iDoc app?
Abstract
Access to information by all medical staff has undergone drastic change over the past 10 years. Paper-based information sources are no longer seen as the most useful and important. These days people want access to information when and where they need it, rather than going to a library to look information up later in their day. This is where smartphones and more specifically smartphone apps are now coming into their own.
