Sonja Leskinen, Veterinarian Work, Enhanced by Mobile Technology—An Empirical Study. In: Ralph H. Jr. Sprague (Ed.), 2012 45th Hawaii International Conference on System Sciences, 1403-1412, Conference Publishing Services (CPS), 2012.
Abstract:
The aim of this paper is to find out if mobile
technology can be used to enhance a veterinarian’s
work during house calls. The main focus is toward
Equine medicine veterinarians. The results obtained
from this research, which were conducted with Finnish
veterinarians, are also transferable, to some degree, to
other countries. We will find out what the current
situation during house calls for veterinarians. We need
to understand their daily routines and bottlenecks, how
they regard new technology and how they currently use
Information Systems (IS) and mobile technology. With
this information we can then develop working IS and
mobile solutions that will enhance the veterinarians
work during house calls and at the same time improve
the veterinarian’s customer service.
