INDEPENDENT

The project defines, delivers and pilots a digital infrastructure supporting coordinated cross-sector delivery of timely support to prevent older people from slipping out of safe independent living, maintaining quality of life. The infrastructure enables support services to overcome limitations of sectoral telehealth and telecare and empowers informal carers and the voluntary / third sector to participate in delivery of support, thus radically improving efficiency. The innovative new services are piloted at six sites across the Europe. The project brings together 20 organisations across 6 Member States representing all major stakeholders in the “value chain” of support to older people, from public authorities and social and health service providers to global industry players and specialist SMEs
