16. April 18, 2007 Med-e-Tel 2007, Luxembourg ETSI Workshop 16 Telecare is…  ICT-enabled delivery of health and social care services to individuals within the home or a wider area, involving  clients, carers and coordination agents.  A Business-to-Consumer (B2C) service model, including:  information and communication services;  safety and security monitoring;  personal monitoring;  electronic assistive technologies.  NOT telemedicine, a service offered to and used by healthcare professionals!  a Business- to-Business (B2B) service model

17. April 18, 2007 Med-e-Tel 2007, Luxembourg ETSI Workshop 17 A historical perspective (pre-e-Infrastructures)  Medical care until the mid ‑ 1900s  provided by trained physicians in the client's home;  family and neighbours acting as nursing and supportive staff  This healthcare model has changed dramatically  Medical care is now care unit ‑ centric, requiring advanced equipment;  A GP or MD's visit to the client's home has become an unusual service.  Telemedicine was introduced in the 1960s  as isolated, stand alone efforts to overcome distances  Social care services supported by ICT since the 1990s  Through call centre services, home equipment for social alarms, etc.  Enabled by the underlying technology and availability of services.  The more widespread deployment of telecare was held back by the:  lack of reliable telecommunication networks and devices;  unavailability of hardware and software at reasonable costs;  lack of on ‑ line connectivity;  relatively stable demographics and lack of political support;  lack of client trust, acceptability and client expectations and habits;  resistance from healthcare professionals social patterns take generations to change

18. April 18, 2007 Med-e-Tel 2007, Luxembourg ETSI Workshop 18 A historical perspective: e-Infrastructures as enablers  Users were not ready yet, nor were the prerequisites  technology, society, technical infrastructure, practitioners, procedures, budgets, etc  The proliferation of fixed and mobile broadband services (in and outside the home) is opening up opportunities for convenient and reliable delivery of telecare services  Thereby- the demand for end user (client) centric human factors guidelines  addressing design, development, deployment, use and maintenance of telecare services is on the increase  At present, demographic changes, limited resources, high user expectations, globalization and technology are  transforming medical and social care systems in many countries

19.

23. April 18, 2007 Med-e-Tel 2007, Luxembourg ETSI Workshop 23 Guideline themes  Trust – trust is only established when the user believes issues relating to the security of information have been dealt with appropriately, and that the system can deliver what is expected of it.  User interaction - Interfaces should be designed with the needs of all end users in mind, requiring high degrees of flexibility and a sound knowledge of the end users abilities and preferences.  Service aspects – this theme is mainly concerned with the internal workings of the system developers and service providers, ensuring that any issues which might arise here are dealt with appropriately so that the service can be delivered.
