Project description
Innovation for multimorbidity treatment in elderly patients
Multimorbidity in elderly patients reduces their quality of life. Healthcare silos prevent integrated treatment, aggravating patients’ conditions. The EU-funded ESCAPE project will coordinate and optimise the integration of care for mental distress and somatic diseases in multimorbidity treatment. ESCAPE will develop a comprehensive patient-centred intervention that is based on the blended collaborative care approach and enhanced by pioneering information and communication technologies. Trained care managers will work with the patient’s general practitioner that are supported by a clinical specialist team and a meta-algorithm incorporated in an integrated care platform. The overall aim will be to reduce the disease burden for patients and improve the quality of life of patients and carers.
