Promoting Technical Standards for Assistive Technology in European Social care services (TechSocialcare)
The aging population, increasing prevalence of chronic diseases, and changing societal dynamics have led to a growing demand for social and health care services. According to Eurostat, the proportion of people aged 65 and over in the European Union is projected to rise from 21% in a year 2023 to 28% in a year 2050, highlighting the need for optimized social-health care services in institution or natural home to meet this increasing demand.
The innovative technical tools have a demonstrable ambition to create effective care and thereby ensure quality care for a greater number of clients with the same workload for workers in services. The EU Care Strategy, published by the European Commission, states that Europe will need 1.6 million additional workers by 2050. A number of independent tools are being developed, but they are not standardised, making interoperability complex and expensive and usage minimal.
