This study aimed to better understand the requirements of mobile
working, and to demonstrate whether increased productivity and
efficiency can be achieved by making changes to working processes. The
final report outlines the benefits of mobile technology for health staff
and patients at 11 NHS pilot sites. Key findings include: significant
increases in productivity; an increase in available time for patient
contact; reductions in unnecessary journeys as well as time spent
travelling; and significant reductions in data duplication.
