Can telecare and telehealth keep the elderly and chronically ill in their own homes longer? A recent pilot in the city of Oslo, Norway, suggests the answer is yes, with a 32% percent reduction in hospital admissions and a 59% drop in the time nurses spend on home visits. That is thanks to a device which automatically relays readings (blood pressure, thermometers, breathing, etc) to an iPad and on to a central monitoring station. Dignio is also active in Sweden and Denmark and is exploring elderly care in China.
