Question

Are there any good practices available that illustrate how an intranet application can become a practice supportive tool for a mobile team?

Problem description

We often have an insufficient overview of the services in our region: mental health services, leisure, social map, … Furthermore, each service has its own method of managing data.  The Electronic Patient Record has been started up from the beginning or our project, but can only by consulted from our office and not on locations (like homes), neither it’s possible for partners to consult the EPR.

Impact - effect

Opportunities for the client get lost because of the lack of a sufficient overview.  Meaningful information can not get to the right place.  The lack of uniformity in the available information often results in duplication of efforts

To do

To do: take steps towards a uniform instrument, for instance the same EPR as the hospital, whilst eventually creating a (limited) access for partners working with specific access-keys.  A first meaningful step for us could be the possibility to consult and work with the record on several locations, also at home for instance, to do some administrative work.  And / or have access to resources facilitating mobile data transmissions (smartphone, tablet…).
