NEW INNOVATIONS FOR SENIOR CARE
Journal Title: VADYBA - Year 2017, Vol 30, Issue 1
Abstract
The population of Europe is ageing. This phenomenon is a major challenge for the society, but it can also be a great opportunity for business and economy. The EU project called “Silver Economy” focuses on developing strategies related to population ageing, mainly by means of special technology services. These services generally aim to support well-being through health monitoring, robotic assistance, electric mobility or sport activities, including health tourism, green care and web-based home care solutions. Nowadays, innovation developers focus on solutions for elderly people. Economic sectors involved in innovation and development want immediate strategies and clear visions for the next decades. Health and social care, health services, self-health management and senior tourism all require ready models with smart innovations. Currently, there are two main dimensions existing parallel within the field of technologies supporting elderly people. One is focusing on homecare and independency, whilst the other is concentrating on nursing solutions in senior homes. Despite their different approach, the two trends have one thing in common: they are both facing a major innovative technological development.
