Sponsor's own description
Due to the demographic change, there is a growing demand for professional and institutional care, as well as the need for 24-hour home care. Care receivers range from elderly people, in need of assistance with household activities only, to those with a comprehensive need for round-the-clock care. Caregivers commute between Austria and their respective home country (mainly Slovakia, Hungary and Romania) in a two or more weeks cycle. Burdensome working conditions arise mainly due to language problems, isolated coexistence with a person affected by e.g. dementia, in combination with limited professional education and quality control. The aim of the project is the development and evaluation of a software solution for the support and quality assurance of 24-hour home care. The application software contains: 1. an information and education portal (e-learning platform) 2. a comprehensive electronic care documentation 3. an integrated emergency management 4. links to translation pages or networking opportunities with members and relatives
