eHealth services for the elderly at home and on the move

摘要

The ageing process involves biological and physiological changes that may influence older persons' abilities to perform daily living tasks and to interact with their social and physical environments. Normal life or some specific activities could imply certain risks for health or dangerous situations that should be controlled and communicated to alert specific persons or organizations to act accordingly. This paper describes the eHealth services developed for the European co-funded projects REMOTE and OASIS. The eHealth services provide personalized health monitoring, health coaching and alerting and assisting services to assure the well-being of the elderly users during their daily activities.
