As in acute care, use of health information technology in long-term care holds promise for increased efficiency, better accuracy, reduced costs, and improved outcomes. A comprehensive electronic health record (EHR), which encompasses all health care measures that clinicians want to use-both standard health care assessments and those acquired through emerging technology-is th...

Technology offers potential solutions to the pending crisis of health care for older adults while health care workers are in short supply. Technology can enable remote monitoring of individuals and early detection of potential problems, so that early interventions can help older adults remain as healthy and independent as possible. Research is underway with passive monitorin...

The paper describes the evolution of an early illness warning system used by an interdisciplinary team composed of clinicians and engineers in an independent living facility called TigerPlace. The early illness warning system consists of algorithms which analyze resident activity patterns obtained from sensors embedded in residents’ apartments. The engineers designed an aut...

This article provides results of an expert review of data displays for a sensor system used to monitor functional abilities in older adults. The research took place at TigerPlace, an assisted living facility where the sensor system is currently being evaluated. A checklist of 16 heuristic criteria was used to evaluate the sensor data displays, with consideration to the users...
