Supported by telecare PD-research project

This project examines the implementation of telecare in home healthcare, focusing on patient self-management and support. It highlights the increasing use of video communications and monitoring devices to improve patient outcomes, particularly among the elderly with chronic conditions. The study collects qualitative and quantitative data to analyze user satisfaction, safety, and the impact on healthcare management. Results suggest that telecare can reduce hospital visits, enhance quality of life, and provide emotional support to patients and their families.
