This is the good practice's implementation level. It can be national, regional or local.
According to the World Health Organization due to the worldwide improvement of the healthcare conditions, the number of the elderly has been growing, while a fast-growing rate of chronic illnesses is recorded everywhere across the globe, as well.
The process of ageing is complex, where there is no direct link between the state of the physical and mental skills, meaning that the help has to be adjusted in a unique manner to individual requirements.
However, how can we transform the challenges that the elderly is facing into opportunities for them, as well as for the entire society?
After having consulted with clinical research organizations, tested the platform in 3 different countries and evaluated the data to make personalized suggestions, the platform proved to be successful.
With the help of intelligent solutions made available especially for the senior citizens, their social and health condition can improve, which will increase their (action) independence, and by default, improve their quality of life.
There is a high volume of researched data that acknowledges the high capacity of seniors to understand and be interested in technologies adjusted to their needs.
Thus, given that they are receiving help and tools, the elderly can improve their physical and mental health condition.
