IT-supported coordination of local resource networks to relieve the burden on family caregivers in rural areas
Family caregivers need support services. Care communities consisting of professional, semi-professional providers and informal stakeholders provide these services. To do this, they need to work closely together and network. However, they often lack structures for this cooperation. There is also usually a lack of suitable IT technologies to coordinate the actors, harmonise their services and make them easily accessible for family caregivers. This is precisely where the KoordinAID project comes in.
The aim of the overall project is therefore the co-creative development and implementation of an integrated, socio-technical care model for rural regions that empowers and supports local care communities through an innovative IT-supported regional infrastructure. The different types of relief resources distributed at different levels are to be made visible and more accessible to all those involved.
The project serves to develop these structures and technologies together with scientists, caregiving relatives and technology providers for the Kinzigtal model region in the Black Forest.
