E-health technologies offer great potential to help improving clinical outcomes,
patient experience, and operational efficiency. All too frequently, access
barriers to information systems at the times, and in the places demanded by
clinical workflows, can limit system adoption, and constrain process change.In
recognition of these challenges, alternative technology is required.
Furthermore, mobile technology has been identified as a potential alternative
since it is able to provide the accessibility to patient data, medicinal
history, and keep track of his statusanywhere andanytime. Using tablet devises
capabilities of high processing power and long battery life to provide a better
diagnose, scheduling medicine and injection period. This Study discussesthe
development and user’s evaluation of Android Mobile Application for Palestinian
Healthcare (AMAPH)prototype.The Design Science Research Methodology (DSRM) was
adapted to develop the AMAPH.AMAPH was developed to improve the clinical
healthcare at Palestinian hospitals using tablet personnel computer (PC’s).DSRM
comprises six phases that are awareness of problem, suggestion, design,
development, evaluation, and conclusion.Results of user evaluation of 40
participants among Doctors and Nurses on the AMAPHindicate that it has good
usability in terms of Usefulness, Ease of Use,learnability, and
satisfaction.Moreover, the results confirm that AMAPH is useful for Doctor and
Nurses to make their transactions easy
