“New UK charity d4, which aims to improve patient care by getting healthcare professionals to use mobile technology, has published research that shows how mobile devices are increasing productivity in clinical practice and patient care.
It says 80% of UK registered health professionals rely on a mobile phone at work for a range of purposes. Perhaps obviously, the main reason is for communicating with colleagues (82%), although accessing information on the intranet/internet comes second at 46%. However, only 8% of respondents were compensated for the costs of using their own mobile technology for work.”
