Published   by ACCA in collaboration with Nottingham  University Hospitals NHS   Trust and the European Commission Information  Society Directorate –   General, this recent report explains how deployment of new   communications tools at Nottingham University Hospital resulted in   patients spending less time waiting for treatment while doctors   increased their available time for direct patient care time by around  40 minutes per day.

"The  report provides a persuasive account  of the  huge impact the new  communications infrastructure deployed at  NUH has  had on  re-engineering the day-to-day working processes of its  emergency   department. The report highlights the role of communications  tools in   creating a more efficient, streamlined and peaceful working   environment  in which NUH can deliver high quality care to patients."
