Nurses' Perspectives on In-Home Monitoring of Elderlies's Motion Pattern
In-home monitoring systems have been proposed to support aging in place and facilitate home care service. Through a qualitative approach the study explores nurses' existing challenges and perspectives of an in-home monitoring system. Results indicate that nurses base care decisions on multiple, and sometimes, unreliable information sources. However, access to information about elderlies' physical motion could support the care planning process by reducing ambiguity and raising attention. Hence, a simple and affordable system that largely relies on nurses to interpret the sensed data could bring additional value.
