In September 2020, Ethos, in partnership with ASL Salerno, and with the support of Università Campus Bio-Medico di Roma and the Giordano Bruno Foundation, took part in the Campania Region’s Start Up 2020 call for proposals on digital innovation.
The project focused on the importance of home care, with particular attention to structured care protocols for patients with dementia, both to improve patients’ overall well-being and to address the healthcare challenges posed by the COVID-19 pandemic.
The initiative aimed to digitize the entire home-care system, encompassing not only the testing and implementation of technologies for innovative telemedicine, but also the integration of healthcare professionals’ activities with the needs of patients’ families.
This latter aspect represented a key challenge for the project, with the goal of developing a research and innovation pathway that would be efficient, effective, and acceptable to all stakeholders.
