One of the promising aspects of eHealth is the potential for more tailored and focused intervention. Personalised eHealth intelligent systems would, for example, enable:
- people to take more control of their well-being, by accessing personalised and qualified health information, both medical and pedagogical, and accessing appropriate medical care from their homes,
- health professionals to manage their activity more efficiently, by receiving relevant and timely updates,
- medical teams to work together more effectively, coordinating their activities, sharing their knowledge about the patients they are collectively taking care of, and ensuring the best coordinated care is provided.
The event will be an occasion for eHealth stakeholders to share issues and practices on a variety of subjects related to the field.For further information, please visit:
