Abstract 

  With society becoming increasingly dependent upon technology due to its multitude of uses and functions, healthcare professionals have followed suit. As the use of technology and electronic health records is encouraged upon all formats and sizes of healthcare systems more healthcare professionals are being mandated to learn new software and tools to streamline their work. As their work becomes increasingly efficient, the demand for better performance and output increases as well. The continuous demand for improvement has resulted in increased stress levels amongst different healthcare professionals and decreased motivation in their obligations towards work. As the stress levels for healthcare professionals impacts their performance, additional consequences arise which in turn reflect upon the overall quality of healthcare services provided. This paper seeks to explore and understand how and why these technology-based stressors occur and how health administrators can better understand the conditions which could prevent it.
