IntegrAAL
IntegrAAL creates new arrangements of care delivery involving formal and informal carers, made possible by technology based products. Examples include Management of Patients with Dementia within the Community. Dementia has a large impact on the sustainability of health systems. Care in the community is generally desired for dementia patients which needs to be aligned with professional care through information sharing. ICT plays a central role in enabling this sharing on a need to know basis across different carers in the community, nurses, social workers, family, neighbours or even businesses.
Supporting Circles of Care to Empower Families and Communities to Self-serve: Reablement services after Hospital discharge are key to achieve sustainability in future care provision. ICT can deliver information sharing including telecare and telehealth devices across care providers, aiding self-management and reducing readmissions. User collaboration throughout design and testing ensures the product meets the needs and is market aligned.
