Abstract

The integration of mobile health technologies in medical practice has the potential to promote in‐person, high‐quality care. We examine the impact of Voalte, a healthcare‐specific mobile application, on bedside rounding and care coordination. A cross‐sectional survey was conducted on 71 medical ward‐based nurses from a quaternary‐care academic centre, capturing 183 rounding events. The frequency of physician–nurse overlap at the bedside was 50.3%, representing a >20% increase when compared with the 2018 baseline before Voalte's introduction. Our results show that mobile health technologies can strengthen inpatient medicine workflows and interdisciplinary collaboration when implemented successfully.
