Abstract | There is renewed interest in mobile technologies in aged care. While the technologies themselves emerged some decades ago, it is only now that some of the barriers to adoption are being overcome and implementation is seen as more practical and cost-effective. The interest in mobile technologies in aged care stems from the expectation that they will assist integration of information into clinical practice, and particularly for assisting clinicians at the point-of-care. Desktop-based systems have not been well adopted by hospital doctors and mobile technologies may better suit the work-practices of these and other mobile clinicians. There are expectations of efficiency gains from the introduction of mobile technologies in aged care. |
