IT Support for Advanced Care in the Home : un exemple d'innovation publique suedois

~~The IT Support for Advanced Care at Home system supports advanced medical home care through the use of information and communication technology (ICT). Advanced care in the home which is provided by hospital staff, needs a different kind of support in comparison to hospital care. The initial focus of the system was for palliative care of terminally ill patients, but the scope has now been widened to include care of chronically ill patients

~~The new system supports homecare by:

~~- Nurses visiting patients at home use on-line touch-pads for the information they need during the visit and for reporting back to the hospital

~~- Equipment at patients’ homes is remotely connected to the hospital providing measurements and other information for monitoring.

~~- Supports organisation and planning of work at the hospital by providing a dynamic overview of what needs to be done, staff activities and information regarding about each patient

~~- Communication between patients and staff is supported including through the use of video.
