eHealth Program for Connecting Communities of Care
The aim of this pilot study was to investigate, specify, design, prototype, evaluate and analyze new, state-of-the-art software methodologies and architectures specifically tailored to eHealth applications, which can be used by the Industry Partner to develop new, successful eHealth products that will substantially improve the delivery of care to people with Chronic Disease. These new methodologies and architectures will be based on Participatory Design Principles, and Model Driven Architectures, and 6-month eHealth program was to improve elders autonomous access to and use of health-related information in the form of videoconference from a human-centered web site. The content of the program included participants mastery of basic computing skills and accessing and enhancing participants interest in seeking health related knowledge and information via the Internet. Data were collected in months 2 (pretest) and 4 (posttest) using questionnaires and open-ended questions. The overall learning experience was positive. Our eHealth program can be viewed as a prototype for designing technology platforms for the delivery of professional healthcare services to home-based older adults with chronic disease.
