title: Evaluating acceptance of an electronic data management system at a tertiary care institution.
abstract: This research reports on satisfaction with the introduction of an electronic document management system in a tertiary hospital environment. A buffet of training and familiarization options were offered: one-on-one training, open house, drop-in, e-learning, classroom training, and self-study. It was found that professions differ in their pattern of satisfaction with training and they also differ in their satisfaction with both the usefulness and the ease of use of the system. Satisfaction among administrators was highest and that among nurses lowest. There was an association between attendance at the open house event and satisfaction with the system.
