Description (French)
Dans le cadre du projet de consortium international «Development of Digital Comprehensive Geriatric Assessment at Home (D-CGA@home) to Support Advanced Telemedicine», ce projet se concentrera sur les évaluations à distance à domicile. L’évaluation gériatrique globale est un processus de diagnostic et de traitement complet qui évalue les facteurs physiques, cognitifs, sociaux et environnementaux essentiels à la santé et au mieux-être des personnes âgées, en les aidant à vieillir sur place. Cette plateforme étendra les capacités de la plateforme Care2Talk existante en incorporant une capacité de surveillance supplémentaire via une tablette, facilitant une adoption plus large de CGA au Canada et au Japon, et donnant aux cliniciens les moyens de mieux soutenir les personnes âgées à distance
