  1. Life Supporting Technologies Telecare, Design for All and Independent Living Alejandro Rodríguez Ascaso ETSI TC HF (STF 264) arodrigu@gbt.tfo.upm.es Universidad Politécnica de Madrid Human Factors and the Digital Home Workshop. ETSI, October 22nd 2004

  2. Disability demographics • Around a 10% of the planet population is disabled • In Spain, 3.528.221 people, a 9% of the population People with disabilities in Spain < 6 From 6 to 15 From 16 to 44 From 45 to 64 From 65 to 84 > 85 [INE, 2000]

  3. Raising dependency • An aging Europe: By 2050, a 40% of European population will be older than 65 • Disability rates rise with age 32,21% 4,59% Between 6 and 64 Older than 64 [INE, 2000]

  4. Independent Living “Independent Living means that we demand the same choices and control in our every-day lives that our non-disabled brothers and sisters, neighbors and friends take for granted. We want to grow up in our families, go to the neighborhood school, use the same bus as our neighbors, work in jobs that are in line with our education and interests, and start families of our own” Adolf Ratzka, 1992. “Nothing about us without us”, David Werner, 1998 [Independent Living]

  5. Raising dependency • What is the most beneficial situation? “Institution residents have many much more serious health problems than elderly people who live independently, and they have much less access to the resources that would allow them to continue living independently with such health problems.” [SCPON, 1994] • Where do elderly people want to live? With relatives (14%) In an institution (2,5%) At home (78,8%) [SESPAS, 2004]

  6. Independent Living and Autonomy at Home • Independent living implies performing Daily Living Activities (DLA) : • Personal care: Waking up and going to bed, feeding, bathing, going to the toilette • Home tasks: Cooking, shopping, cleaning • Communication: Picking up the phone, Opening the door when the bell is ringing, etc. • Entertainment: Listening to music, watching the TV • Safety: Facing emergency situations Most housing is designed for young, active and mobile people In Spain, more than one half of people with disabilities between 6 y 64 (70% for 65+) face problems when performing daily living activities (DLA). [INE, 2000]

  7. Personal asistance and Independent Living Accessibility (Design for All + AT) Requirements for Personal autonomy + = Personal Assistance Personal Assistance is based in services provided by persons who help people with disability to perform activities. For instance, those which can not be performed only with technological solutions
