Abstract
The introduction of a new tool in any work environment affects the way this work is undertaken. Some of the ensuing changes are desired and foreseen, others are unforeseen and have a negative impact on the work they were introduced to support. This paper discusses some of the implications of the use of mobile telephones to support the organization and delivery of Community Healthcare.
