Abstract
In this study we explore what digitally supported, mobile work in home care nursing may look like in practice. The results show that there is a large degree of self-determination among the nurses when it comes to organizing their work and that the digital systems can lead to an increased complexity. The diverse environment encountered in home care (as compared to the more standardized hospital environment) accentuates that digitalization has many sides to it and cannot be treated as a generic homogeneous entity regardless of context and task.
