Editor's Notes
- 50% of the world’s popn will have a mobile phone by the end of 2008 The UK home as access to broadband, 44% of eurpoean homes signed up Wireless technologies mature 54% Increase put Silver Surfers at cusp of being largest group online after the usual digital natives in the UK
- The picture today is very much focussed on hospital treatment with an estimated 70% of NHS costs are in chronic disease management and with healthcare costs reaching a record high the focus on healthcare is changing with the focus moving away from treatment by healthcare professionals in hospitals to more emphasis being placed on people taking responsibility for their own personal wellbeing with the NHS & other companies looking to introduce applications and services for the prevention and early detection of chronic conditions coupled with tchnologies that will allow people to live independently with post event care the aim being to achieve an independent life for as long as is practical giving them the choice to live independently using assistive technologies that will not only help the health system but in addition give a better service to the citizen. This would effectively move this picture to a more empowered, flexible and efficient healthcare environment allowing the citizen to take more control and ownership over their own healthcare and wellbeing and reduce the strain found in the treatment delivery element for healthcare. Our project is very much focussed on trying to develop companies that will innovate to allow this picture to be a realisation.
