Project description
ICT for ageing well
The project aim is to ensure immediate successful deployment of ICT-enabled integrated care programs supporting healthier and independent living.
The increasing prevalence of chronic disorders is expected to continue, leading to further dysfunctions of our current healthcare systems. It is widely accepted the importance of introducing substantial changes in the delivery of care and social support services for chronic patients, including changes in lifestyle, empowerment of patients and relatives and better collaboration among different levels of care. Obstacles lie in the current fragmentation of health providers and community services together with the challenge of managing co-morbidity.
Nexes aims at the extensive deployment and sustainability of validated integrated care services, by:
- Deploying four integrated care programs for chronic patients based on structured interventions addressing prevention, healthcare and social support.
- Innovate in services that: a) adopt an integrated approach that includes profound organizational changes, b) face the co-morbidity challenge, and, c) use of ICT as modular and scalable tools supporting interoperability among actors.
- Validate the deployed programmes in large scale RCT studies.
The societal adaptations required for reducing the burden of chronic disorders and ageing have been strengthened by the WHO initiative on Innovative Care for Chronic Conditions. With this scenario in place, a successful deployment of innovative integrated care services supporting healthier and independent living of patients with chronic disorders has emerged as an urgent need. The NEXES project aims at deploying four specific integrated care programs targeting prevalent chronic disorders: - Well being and rehabilitation (W) - Enhanced Care support of unplanned hospitalisations (EC) - Home hospitalisation & early discharge (HH) - Support of diagnostic and/or therapeutic procedures (S) They have been selected considering the promising outcomes generated during previous small-scale randomized controlled trials. A major strength of the project is the accumulated knowledge within the consortium ensuring the future success of the proposed services addressing:- Co-morbidity challenge - Articulation of healthcare and community services - Organizational and educational issues - Modularity, scalability and interoperability of the ICT platform - Identification of business models ensuring service sustainability Particular attention is paid to validation through large field studies considered to be an essential step to define strategies for sustainability of the NEXES services
