In doing so, healthcare professionals are able to reduce their environmental footprint.
By: Mary Carrick Rather than taking loads of paperwork from assignment to assignment, modern technology has enabled a travel nurse or travel physical therapist to use compact information storage devices. Items such as a Universal Serial Bus (USB), laptops, tablets and smartphones help mobile and permanent location professionals save the important details in easily accessible formats.

Retail stores are getting in on the benefits of going paperless by offering customers the ability to have receipts emailed to them instead of being printed out.
