Abstract:
Concept analysis on adaptation to technology was done to give emphasis to its use in the nursing profession towards quality care.
The constant changing environment not to mention the sudden existence of COVID-19 surprised the world alongside with arising
technology that led to the idea of adaptation of nurses to meet the patient and/or client's needs. The method used in the concept was
the Walker and Avant's approach. This approach is achieved through eight phases: choosing a concept, determining the purpose of
analysis, identifying all uses of the concept, defining attributes, identifying a model case, identifying borderline, related, and contrary
cases, identifying antecedents and consequences, and defining empirical referents. The attributes of adaptation of nurses were
successful interaction of nursing population with the technological environment and changes in function of the Nurse as to get used
to daily routine and technology.
