Abstract

With the NHS and social care experiencing growing demand for services and financial pressures, there is a need for the system to work differently. Technology and the physical estate are essential for delivering change, with the potential to transform the way patients interact with services and support different ways of working for staff. Despite this, however, technology and the estate have historically remained near the bottom of NHS organisations’ priority lists, and are rarely considered together. 'Clicks and mortar: technology and the NHS estate' reports on research carried out by The King’s Fund, supported by NHS Property Services, on the impact of changing technology on the NHS estate and highlights the need for joined-up thinking as part of plans for wider clinical change. The report provides an overview of where we are now – how technology is currently being used across the NHS and how the estate has adapted. It also considers what the estate might look like in the future and the opportunities and challenges the NHS faces in delivering this, including working as a system to develop a vision and plans for the future, learning from other sectors, securing the required funding, and ensuring the right skill mix.
This report was commissioned by NHS Property Services.
