mHealth

The mHEALTH project is launched with the main objective of increasing the competences of PWD (GDS 2-4) for adopting mHealth technologies. Aims to increase self-management and empowerment of PWD regarding their health condition, to transfer the adapted information about existing affordable mHealth technologies selected based on the general and specific acceptance criteria and how to use them, to the development of a training methodology based on “learning by doing” and “gamification” where PWD can be trained in a “friendly” environment, reducing their fears, concerns and reservations to the mHealth technologies before they can use it in the real world, to the development of a Digital Serious Game which will motivate them to be engaged with mHealth and increase their digital skills. According to that, mHEALTH-AD will get the next impacts in the population of persons with mild dementia (PWD). They will increase their self-management and empowerment and will improve their health condition, increase their digital skills and their resilience in the framework of health emergencies, like those related with the COVID-19 pandemic.

Impact

By the end of the project PWD will enhance their Quality of Life by acquiring competences related with their health self-management. In the Training Program will have an experiential and learning by doing approach that will train them in the direct use of mHealth solutions make them aware of using mHealth solutions for maintaining their wellbeing and improve the acquisition of digital skills, not only by using the mHealth solutions proposed but with the use of e-training platform as well.

Gamification training approaches and the use of Digital Serious Game will motivate them. They will be taught how to comunicate with their carers or even health professionals to support when needed. Their resilience in situations in health emergencies will be increased, by specializing the entities in the improvement of the health condition and training of PWD. Research Institutions specialized in Digital Health Literacy and Assistive Technologies, specially applied to elder persons and PWD, will access to a training that amplifies that scope towards Quality of life and self-management of health issues of PWD.

Organization specialized in education, e-learning, social inclusion, training, coaching, designing of curricula and training materials,including digital serious games will get knowledge and skills related with the collective of elder persons and PWD.
