In section 1 a publishable summary of the project is provided for communication purposes. Section 2 summarises the objectives of the work for this reporting period, basically the real finalisation of the pilot activities with the actual data collection and monitoring of the older persons’ status, and the final analysis of the outcomes, facilitated by the action of the HOME SWEET HOME Management team. Section 3 provides a detailed report of the progress made Workpackage by Workpackage. The most notable items here are a detailed list of dissemination initiatives carried out (WP2), the activities of the Advisory Group (WP4) in charge for a high level monitoring of the project with an external, independent view where an additional, unforeseen task (the Qualitative Study) was designed and successfully carried out, whereas WP6 and 7 account for the real service operation of the pilot sites. This is obviously the most critical area of the project as throughout the project’ lifetime the most relevant deviations from plans were to be found here. For this reason this is the area where the Management Team and the Steering Committee have put the most significant efforts and thanks to these the objectives of the project have been reasonably achieved with the exception on the Italian pilot site. Section 4 provides the status of the deliverables, Milestones and KPI tables, whereas Section 5 focusses on the Project Management side, with an updated GANTT chart and detailed tables with the person month tables per partner and per activity. The main observation is that taking into account the 12 months extension which has been approved by the European Commission, and due to a certain level of underspending experienced in the previous reporting period, it has been possible to redistribute the person months allocation over a longer period. The remaining sections account for the use of resources on a partner-by-partner basis and for other administrative details. Finally Appendix I reports on the Status of the actions from the last Project Review of 25th April 2013. The overall picture of the project which stems out from this report is that the project has reached its natural end with a satisfactory level of achievement of the foreseen results, although this level of achievement is uneven across the four pilot sites and it has not always been possible to fully implement all the envisaged solutions: but the conclusion that some of these solutions are not viable is one of the important lessons we have learned from the project. Grant Agreement nr. 250449 3 HSH Project Progress Report 4 Section 1 Publishable summary HOME SWEET HOME started on 1st March 2010 and trials a new, economically sustainable home assistance service which extends older persons independent living and finished on the 28th February 2014 with the total duration extended from the initially foreseen three years to a full four years lifetime. The trials were held in four European countries (Belgium, Ireland, Italy and Spain) according to the randomised controlled trial (RCT) methodology. The objectives of the project were to measure organisational, economic and clinical effects and to compare the results between a study group and a control group. Older persons in the control group received normal care such as it was already provided by local health and social services, whereas people in the study group received additional ICT-based services. These additional services supported older persons in their daily activities and allowed caregivers to remotely assess their ability to stay independent. While systems of this kind inevitably represent an intrusion in the older persons’ private life, in the case of HOME SWEET HOME particular care has been put to limit to a bare minimum the need for other people to interfere with the older person’s private life unless a clear need is detected by the system. The project comprised the following services: Monitoring and Alarm Handling, eInclusion, Domotics, Daily Scheduler, Navigation and Mental Faculty Maintaining. The Monitoring and Alarm Handling is based on a Decision Support System which analyses in real time data collected from medical and environmental sensors, fall detectors and geopositioning systems. Standard behavioural patterns are established for individuals; sudden, major changes trigger alarms. eInclusion is achieved through intuitive videoconferencing based on the familiar TV paradigm and adapted for use by people unfamiliar with IT technology. Domotics and Daily Scheduler help older persons to organise their daily activities and to manage the house in spite of growing physical and mental impairments. The navigation system takes people who got lost to the closest safe place. Cognitive training is implemented through interactive games based on cognitive adaptive technology. Complexity of exercises is adjusted to the performance and current mental level of the user. HOME SWEET HOME has measured the differences between control group and study group on: evolution in the quality of life (assessed by the SF36 questionnaire at the beginning, midterm and end of the trial period); duration of independent life; amount of situation of risk; Grant Agreement nr. 250449 4 HSH Project Progress Report 4 changes in the feeling of isolation; amount of transfers to older persons homes; cost of social care; cost of health care. The project was implemented by a Consortium of 17 partners, both private and public, with a very strong presence of health and social authorities with budgetary responsibilities for health and older persons’ care, together with social service providers, healthcare providers, contact centres, healthcare insurers, an older persons’ people representative association, technology providers and business consultants. The project finished on 28th February 2014 and the final outcomes and findings will be pcompiled and published soon.

Grant Agreement nr. 250449 6 HSH Project Progress Report 4 Section 3 Work progress and achievements during the period Work Package 1: Project Co-ordination, Management and Quality Assurance The main objectives of this package are the following: - effective management of the project in all its aspects; - ensuring that project goals are achieved within the financial and human resources allocated to the project; - co-ordination of the Consortium activities; - management of the contractual issues and of the relationship with the European Commission; - reporting to the Commission; - Quality Assurance. During the fourth reporting period, the Management Team has carried out the usual management and co-ordination activities plus “ad hoc” activities which were judged necessary to steer the Project in the right direction. These activities include: Management of the contractual issues and of the relationship with the European Commission. Daily co-ordination of the Consortium activities; Monitoring of and support for the partners in the execution of their tasks; Liaison with the User Advisory Group, with the Clinical Group and the Technical Contact persons; Management of the action list; Management of the issue- and risk register; Preparation and organisation of: o The third Project Review held in Brussels on the 25th of April, 2013; o The 8th Project Steering Committee (PSC) meeting held in Treviso on 1st and 2nd October, 2013; The 9th Project Steering Committee (PSC) meeting held in Badalona on the15th of January, 2014 A number of recommendations and of requests for resubmission of deliverables were issued by the Review Panel after the Third review. All the recommendations have been implemented and the deliverables resubmitted. A table summarizing the implementation of the recommendations is provided as Annex I to this report. Carrying out and chasing internal reporting + monitoring; Contractual reporting to the Commission; Collecting status reports from our partners twice a month; Quality check of all deliverables before they were submitted; Grant Agreement nr. 250449 7 HSH Project Progress Report 4 Work Package 2: Dissemination This WP intends to give high visibility to the activities carried out in the Project. Target audiences for this dissemination effort are the public and private purchasers and providers of health and social care to older persons people, social and health insurers, social and health care professionals and general public. The dissemination effort will be organised along three communication lines: - The HOME SWEET HOME website, which will be a living window of the project and will be constantly updated with the latest results achieved throughout the entire lifecycle of the Project. - The HOME SWEET HOME leaflet which will be produced in two versions to support the presentation of the Project in relevant conferences and fairs. This represents the “classical” but still widespread marketing tool of any project. - The HOME SWEET HOME Workshops and Conferences: o The HOME SWEET HOME Regional Conferences will bring together in each of the participating Regions 20-30 potential early adopters from neighbouring regions and countries; o Midterm Workshop and the Final Conference where 50-60 and 80-100 sector players respectively will be invited for a face-to-face presentation of the project results to promote its adoption by public and private social and health care providers. The full dissemination report for this reporting period is provided as Annex II to this document. Here we present a summary of the said report. Based upon our stakeholder analysis we agreed that the 4th period in the Project still needed to focus on our participants and their relatives in order to keep them motivated for the closing period. Since this is the 3th year where our participants are using the HOME SWEET HOME services we still need to focus on avoiding dropouts in both the control and the study group. Grant Agreement nr. 250449 8 HSH Project Progress Report 4 Besides our focus on our participants and their relatives we used the fourth period also to inform the other stakeholders (see arrows) about the results, lessons learned and other important information about Home Sweet Home. Moreless since we will close down the project a lot of other dissemination opportunities will occur, now that we can release the gathered information about 4 years of Home Sweet Home. As some of our dissemination actions are not specifically for one target group we summarised our dissemination actions here : 1. Personalised communication : As mentioned in the former Reviews our focus remained also in this period to keep our participants and their relatives motivated by stimulating them and informing them about the project. Besides the physical visits we also spent a lot of effort in making newsletters to keep them informed but also to make them realise how important they are irrespective of the fact that they are in the study or in the control group. o Some examples of the newsletters we made in Belgium and Ireland during the final period are provided in Annex II. Grant Agreement nr. 250449 9 HSH Project Progress Report 4 Besides the use of a regular newsletter we sent out a letter (see Annex II) to all our users at the end of the project in order to thank them. 2. Website As agreed at the former Review we had changed our ‘CMS’ system from Smartsite to Drupal. In the final period we have made some small changes and upgrades to the website. Our objectives for the new website where the following and we think that all of them where obtained. o o o o o o Easier to use and maintain technology Cost efficient (Drupal is an open source technology) More modern and fresh look and a more dynamic website More friendly in use so that other participants can add information on it by themselves Integration with new dissemination tools such as twitter, movies, … More living website Grant Agreement nr. 250449 10 HSH Project Progress Report 4 Due to the fact that at this stage of the project we have gathered a lot of information that can be disseminated, we have decided to maintain de website until at least the end of 2015. At the end of 2015 we will evaluate the use of the website and the necessity to have it running longer. Grant Agreement nr. 250449 11 HSH Project Progress Report 4 3. Brochures & leaflets A leaflet has been produced in order to inform about the entire Project. Partners can use this leaflet as a basis for their own translated version, which can include specific information related to their target audience. The leaflet has also been announced on LinkedIn, Facebook and our website and spread through the different events we participated in. Qualitative analysis One of the remarks following one of our project reviews consisted in gathering qualitative information about the HSH users and their feeling about the project. Therefore a qualitative analysis was set up and together with the support of the Advisory Board and Age we have produced a publication on the outcome of a small qualitative study that took place within the Home Sweet Home user group. The study aimed at shedding the light to barriers and enablers for the acceptance of new technologies that where introduced to help older persons live autonomously and manage better their health. It is written from the perspective of older persons who use technologies in their everyday living and it is addressed to all the stakeholders who are involved in the development and deployment of such solutions : researchers, service providers, industry and SME’s, public authorities, health and social care professionals, informal caregivers, insurers and mutualities and older persons themselves. Instead of discussing elements specific only to the project, the publication is drafted in a way that can be useful to various similar settings and sets of services. First some information about Home Sweet Home and the study is provided. Then the results of the study are summarized as answers to the questions : who are older persons and what matters to them ? In the end, recommendations for future research and practice are given, before presenting the case studies, which were analysed in order to reach conclusions and lessons learned. Our qualitative analysis is being disseminated via the website, website of partners (Age, ZB, …), Twitter, Linked-in, … 4. Video on HSH In May 2012 we made some videos in order to inform our stakeholders about HSH: o A day in the life of some of our participants (we followed some of our participants during a day in order to show the public about HSH, how it is being used, what it means, …); o A video about the project with short interviews with team members and users; o A short video per item in order to present the means and use; o A short video about the installation Grant Agreement nr. 250449 12 HSH Project Progress Report 4 In June 2013 an additional video was made by the Spanish delegation for dissemination use. http://youtu.be/NFquHKt9_-A Grant Agreement nr. 250449 13 HSH Project Progress Report 4 These videos where displayed and published on: o o o o o o o HSH Website; YouTube; Websites of the HSH partners; Facebook pages; Linked-in pages; Shown in several occasions as, e.g. at the final Workshop, … … 5. Conferences and workshops Only the titles of the conferences are provided here. Full information can be found in Annex II. 19/05/2013 – delegation from Liège, Waterloo, Charleroi and Luxembourg visited the Antwerp HSH project – Antwerp – Belgium Eneo is an organisation from Wallonie (www.eneo.be) enabling the rights of the older and has 40.000 senior members. A delegation from different parts of the south of Belgium came over to have a look at the Home Sweet Home project and followed a workshop on our project. Grant Agreement nr. 250449 14 HSH Project Progress Report 4 19/11/2013 – Regional Conference in Italy – Rome by Darco Servizi. The occasion of the conference was the first showing on cinema of a reportage about migrants working in Rome as long term carer for older people or people with disabilities, called “BADAMI”. The Italian word “bàdami” means “take care of me” and it recalls both the word “badante” which is an informal way of referring to “long term carers” and the need to better take care of long term carers and the families of older people and people with disabilities. 26/02/2014 – Final conference : ICT and E-Skills for social Care – Brussels - Belgium AGE was invited to give a presentation for the final conference of the project Carenet, which worked on the improvement of ICT skills in the long-term care sector. Bearing in mind the legal and ethical framework in which social care is provided in Europe and drawing from the experience of AGE Platform Europe, Nena Georgantzi, Legal Officer, presented older persons’ views on ICT for care and independent living. In addition, she exposed lessons learned from the Home Sweet Home, which finalised a qualitative study on ICT acceptance from the perspective of older users. Final Conference – Barcelona, January 16th, 2014 Conference Title: ENABLERS FOR SUCCESS - E4S CONFERENCE ICT support to Active and Healthy Aging: Paving the way from pilot to the Market A dynamic one-day conference and exhibition Mobile World Centre – Barcelona Thursday, 16 January 2014 14/05/2014 – 5th interactive Congres Facility Management in Care – Antwerp - belgium On Wednesday 14 May – Zorgbedrijf Antwerp participate in a Care Congres about Facility Management by organising some workshops about Home Sweet Home – the lessons learned and trends for the future. 6. Future dissemination on Home Sweet Home As the project is coming to an end we are at a point that we have a lot of information that can be spread to the different stakeholders and can be beneficiary to other EU projects in this field of work. Home Sweet Home is just one piece of the puzzle to build and extend the evidence base on the impact if eHealth, eInclusion and Ambient Assisted Living on elderly care and on the independence of older people. Therefore we will carry on sharing the lessons learnt through the successes and failures in deploying ICT-based care services. Grant Agreement nr. 250449 15 HSH Project Progress Report 4 As you see in the figure below, Home Sweet Home is just one piece of the puzzle and can add interesting information in order to support independence. The Home Sweet Home results are being set out in a number of deliverables that will be put public and will be available on the Home Sweet Home Website, like : D3.8 Clinical and Quality of life impact assessment. D3.10 Social Impact assessment. D3.11 Economic Impact assessment. D3.12 User Satisfaction assessment. D3.13 Barriers to deployment. D4.7 Implementation Guidelines. D7.5 Trial Evaluation Report. User stories about Home Sweet Home – qualitative analysis Grant Agreement nr. 250449 16 HSH Project Progress Report 4 … Besides the dissemination via the website we still have a lot of partners that will keep spreading the results from Home Sweet Home to other potential partners, projects, … like AGE, HIM, … The full list of events held during the final period where HSH has been disseminated is provided in annex II. Grant Agreement nr. 250449 17 HSH Project Progress Report 4 Work Package 3: Evaluation, Business Modelling and Development Planning This WP has the following main objectives: - assessing, independently from the project team, the impact of the HOME SWEET HOME services on: o the social and health condition of older persons people; o the quality of life of the older persons people receiving the service; o the economics of older persons care delivery. - surveying the satisfaction of the different categories of users with the service; - evaluating the potential market for the HOME SWEET HOME services in the EU taking into considerations the differences between one country and another; - preparing a Deployment Plan for the subsequent deployment of the service. This will include a detailed cost/benefit analysis, a billing strategy, and a series of recommendations for setting up and customising the service. During the reporting period, all the foreseen deliverables, namely the three D3.8 Clinical and QoL Impact assessment (incorporating D3.9) D3.10 Social Impact assessment D3.11 Economic Impact assessment D3.12 User Satisfaction assessment D3.13 HOME SWEET HOME Barriers to deployment were produced and submitted. Also, D3.14, Final Deployment Plan was completed with contributions from the various partners. Unfortunately the contribution for Italy was limited to that from Darco because ASL di Latina never replied to requests to provide information about their deployment plans in spite of escalating the issue to the Top Management of the Local Health Authority”. Also the other foreseen deliverables, namely Grant Agreement nr. 250449 18 HSH Project Progress Report 4 Work Package 4: Functional specifications refinement and guidelines elaboration This WP aims to refine the functional specifications of the HOME SWEET HOME Platform. The starting point for this iterative refinement process is the specifications of the platform, which is currently available. The specifications will be progressively refined during the lifecycle of the Pilots making use of the wisdom of the User Advisory Group, and of the feedback from the pilots that will be collected and elaborated. Elaborating guidelines for the successful implementation of HOME SWEET HOME-like services. This iterative process and the close interaction between technical partners and Advisory Groups ensures that by the end of the phase the specifications of the Platform are perfectly in line with market demand During the fourth reporting period, the following activities were carried out: The D4.6 Advisory Group (AG) Final Feedback was drafted to reflect the concluding activities of the AG, in particular the visit to the pilot site of Louth, the outcomes of the qualitative study and the final recommendations arising from the AG activities throughout the project. Moreover, the AG comments fed into the final version of D7.4 and the project final report, as they included long-term considerations and suggestions for future research and deployment. Concretely, during this period considerable efforts were made to complete the qualitative study, which was not initially foreseen as a project deliverable. Following the suggestion of the AG, several preparatory meetings as presented in D.4.4 (Advisory Group Intermediate Feedback) and the agreement reached during the 2013 review, AGE coordinated the work which led to a separate deliverable (D4.8) and a shorter printed and online version to be used for dissemination purposes. After consulting all Advisory Group members to gather some initial questions, Heidrun Mollenkopf and Marja Pijl, from the HSH Advisory Group worked on a voluntary basis on a first draft of the questionnaire for the qualitative interviews. Then a small working group was established comprised by the two Advisory Group members and Nena Georgantzi and Ophélie Durand from AGE Platform Europe, in order to guide the study and deliver the expected results. Wouter Keisjer and Raniero Chelli from the HSH management team were in charge of the communications with the pilot sites. A fist exchange of views on the evolution of the interviews took place during the PSC meeting in Treviso on October 1st 2013, where all pilots reported that they had selected users for the interviews: Latina, Louth and Antwerp were planning to involve 5 participants, whereas Badalona planned to interview all 9 participants of the study group. The Belgian, Irish and Spanish pilot sites delivered the results by the set deadline (15th November 2013). After several reminders to the Italian pilot site on the 12th December 2013, the management team decided that it is no longer possible to wait for the Italian interviews and therefore the working group proceeded with the analysis of the received questionnaires from the 3 pilot sites. During the Advisory Group meeting in Dundalk on the 18th November 2013 the AG experts, decided to prepare a document presenting in a synthetised manner the answers from the 3 pilot sites which participated in the study alongside the previously agreed smaller number of case studies. Grant Agreement nr. 250449 19 HSH Project Progress Report 4 On the occasion of the PSC meeting in Badalona and the HSH Final Conference on the 17 th January in Barcelona, the working group met to draft conclusions based on the qualitative study, harmonise the presentation of the case studies and present some lessons learned and recommendations to project partners as well as the participants of the Final Conference. At that time, it was also decided that the outcomes of the qualitative analysis would be presented in a separate deliverable and only a summary would be included in the Final Feedback of the Advisory Group. Moreover, AGE was asked to explore the possibility of a separate publication. After confirming the availability of the budget, AGE received offers for the design and publication of the brochure on the outcomes of the qualitative study and coordinated this work, which led to the publication of the paper entitled ‘ICT for Ageing Well – Listen to what older persons think!’, which is available here: http://ageplatform.eu/images/stories/Publications/HSH_publication_webversion.pdf Moreover in November 2013, AGE organised a group visit of the AG to Louth where experts talked with the Irish partners and visited two of the users of the HSH technology. The outcomes of this visit are depicted in D4.6 Additionally, AGE has disseminated the project and the results of the qualitative study on a number of occasions and built synergies with the European Innovation Partnership on Active and Healthy Ageing. Grant Agreement nr. 250449 20 HSH Project Progress Report 4 Work Package 5: Enhancement of the HOME SWEET HOME Platform This work package aims to enhance the HOME SWEET HOME platform thanks to feedback from the pilots. The platforms will be adapted on the basis of the functional specifications refined through the interaction between the technical partners and the Advisory Group (see WP4 description) and will make use of the existing HOME SWEET HOME Platform and other ready-made components and sub-systems. Original development will be limited to bridging software to integrate additional components and sub-systems and to minor adaptations of the platform to align it with user requirements. New versions of the platform will be fully tested before they are released for the subsequent set-up of the validation sites. Two versions of the Platform are foreseen during the lifecycle of the Pilots in addition to the original platform at the start of the Project to incorporate in the environment the suggestions derived from the initial part of the trials. The second version of the Platform should achieve a completeness and comprehensiveness to support the further deployment of the HOME SWEET HOME services outside the original pilots. There are no changes to report concerning the evolution of the HSH platform. Grant Agreement nr. 250449 21 HSH Project Progress Report 4 Work Package 6: HOME SWEET HOME service set-up and technical support The HOME SWEET HOME platforms will be installed in the pilot sites. This implies the procurement of the monitoring, domotic, mental faculty training and eInclusion platforms, their installation onsite and the testing of the systems installed in the older persons’ homes. In parallel the central modules of the HOME SWEET HOME environment will be installed in the Contact Centres and integrated with the existing IT infrastructure of such centres. A two-tier helpdesk will be set-up. User will receive first level support from the Contact Centre operators who, in turn, will have access to a second level helpdesk for problems that go beyond the competence of such operators. The Help desk and contact centre in each site continued to operate normally until the end of the contractual period, after which they were discontinued after having informed the participants in the trials Grant Agreement nr. 250449 22 HSH Project Progress Report 4 Work Package 7: Real-life trials They are aimed at: - testing the HOME SWEET HOME environment with a real-life user sample and evaluating their level of acceptance and satisfaction with the concept and with the specific implementation of the services represented by the platform (usability, user-friendliness, relevance, etc.); - collecting quantitative data towards assessing the impact of the service on the economics of delivering social and health care and on the clinical conditions of the Study Group. A close co-ordination and a frequent exchange of view will be maintained among the users and the HOME SWEET HOME partners involved in the for real-life trials which are carried out in parallel. Monthly meetings among the various teams will be held through videoconferencing and teleconferencing to exchange experiences, ideas and suggestions. During the fourth reporting period, the following activities were carried out. They are described from the partners’ perspective. Belgian Pilot, update for the fourth reporting period. 1. Current situation: Recruitment: o Randomized: 62 o Study: 16 15 dropouts o Control: 25 2 dropouts (to nursing home, not interested anymore), 4 passed away Installation o In Touch: 16 o Ello!: 16 o Environment sensors: 16 Movement, smoke, temp, water o Medical sensors: 16 Scale, blood pressure o Mambo: 16 2 keyfobs for every Mambo: one to wear and one waterproof for the bathroom To install o Keymatic: 15 delivered investigation of possibilities: ongoing - few left, no possibilities to install so far : after investigation at our own doors we have reached the following conclusions: installation is not possible on all types of doors. is this system reliable since it operates on batteries? The lock and the remote control both operate on batteries. If the battery is low it is possible that the door won’t open anymore with the remote control when the batteries of the keymatic are flat, the lock can be opened by turning a wheel on the keymatic, but this repetitive movement can strain the wrist of the user. Grant Agreement nr. 250449 23 HSH Project Progress Report 4 The radio frequency could be a security issue. a door system using a badge is far more easy to use for elderly people (this was shown in other projects)? Doors can be opened just by putting the badge next to the badge reader, even when the badge stays inside the wallet or handbag. A badge is easily to replace or reprogram in case of lost or changes in habitants. o Winmatic: cannot be placed (please see D6.2 for more details) o Climatic: cannot be placed (please see D6.2 for more details) Data collection T24 o Final CRF: all done o Diaries: monthly: all done Call Centre/ Helpdesk Activity o Updating protocols: OK o Alarm set up: OK o Mambo alarms: OK 2. The project team @work Meetings with the project team +- every 3 weeks at Digipolis o ZNA: medical issues; o Mutas: alarm topics; o Zorgbedrijf: technical support, coordination, occupational therapist; o Digipolis: technical support, coordination; o Voorzorg: occupational therapist; o CM: physiotherapist; o Zwijsen: technical installations. Spreading the candidates per therapist o Zorgbedrijf: 9 study, 12 control group; o Voorzorg: 5 study, 7 control group; o CM: 10 study, 9 control group. Follow up in Google docs o All the members of the project team document each contact they have with their seniors: technical visits, monthly diary, social visits, etc. o At every project meeting all the candidates are followed up: are there technical issues? Is an extra visit needed? Are the values of the sensors coming through? Is the Mambo online, etc…? Job for the project team ongoing and to be continued o Configuration of the alarms on the Portal: medical alarms to be handled by sending a weekly overview to the medical coordinator: ok, done environment alarms to be set up: ok, done o Ello! training (and motivating candidates); upgrade to new version busy – no new candidates found o Investigation of possibilities to install HomeMatic (keymatic): the possibility of adding domotic remote controls has a great impact because it facilitates independent living, as it allows to remotely control the house (by relatives or call centre) in case of difficulties for the elderly person; o Test: Technical part : Grant Agreement nr. 250449 24 HSH Project Progress Report 4 o The pending call was correctly shown on the navigation webpage. The position was correct within a range of a few meters and the position updated. Usability : The frequency of the position update should be more frequent. The operator wasn’t always informed in time when the “older person” took a wrong turn. The proposed route wasn’t always the ideal route for a person on foot to the safe point. o o EPIDATA workshop: input CRF’s and monthly diaries in database; T24 realised o Newsletter to end the project and to check which devices the people want to keep. Only off line devices are free to use after the project : smoke detector, scale, blood pressure meter o Battery replacement plan: stopped in January while the project ends o New games have been installed and used by the seniors : OK 3. Problems dealt with Technical problems o No new technical problems Dropouts o Last drop outs : going to nursing homes or passed away Spanish Pilot, update for the fourth reporting period. 1. Current Situation Recruitment: o Randomized: 30 o Study: 9 o Control: 11 o Dropouts: 10 4 (passed away) 3 (admitted to nursing home) 2 (declined participation) 1 (moved to relative’s home) o Extra participants needed: 0 Installations: o In Touch: 9 o Ello!: 8 o Environment sensors: 9 Movement, smoke, temp, water o Medical sensors: 9 Scale, blood pressure o Mambo: 9 1 keyfobs for every Mambo o Homematic devices: 0 No Homematic devices can be installed at participants’ houses at the Badalona Pilot Site. For more info please see explanation and pictures in D 6.2. Grant Agreement nr. 250449 25 HSH Project Progress Report 4 o Uninstall platforms at the end of the project: Realized by the teamwork. Data collection o CRF: done o Diaries: monthly: done o All data collected and sent them to the project coordinator. Call Centre/ Helpdesk Activity o Protocol implemented by Call CentreAsmedit and ongoing. o Registration of data / activity: Asmedit has created an excel database with the participants’ contact and monitoring their actions. 2. The project teamwork BSA Pilot Site Team: clinical staff + technical staff o Teamwork for installation phase, and monitoring and resolution problems (In Touch and environmental devices). o Daily contact in El Carme centre: most suitable person to solve problems following protocols. o The nursing staff conducted evaluations and testing protocol and the coordinator update the data in internal EPIDATA. Asmedit Call Centre o First action after an alarm or call. Monitoring since 24/7 and ongoing. o Weekly contact with BSA pilot team; o Free access to call centre activity and register for real-time information. Contacts and monthly monitoring o Clinical members of BSA pilot team note down contacts, visits and alarms triggered by the platform in shared files in the internal server of BSA. Although Asmedit is responsible for responding to and managing calls and alarms, the BSA pilot team is responsible for collecting and registering; o Extra visits needed from both clinical or technical staff are performed within 24 and 48 hours after the problem is detected. Telephone contacts are done regularly to improve adherence to the project and collect monthly information. o The teamwork visited all participants in the collection of devices and uninstall platforms. o Some letters of thanks were sent to the participants (control and case group) to thank for their help and cooperation. Implemented actions o Set up an observation group: We install a multiple platform in our centre to observe its functionality in hospitalised patients. Its implementation did not provide medical support for team given that it were supplementing some of the advantages of the device by the medical protocol itself. o Implemented and checked another device (related with the integration of technology in smartphones Mambo) 3. Problems to deal with Technical problems o Ello!: Finally, the problems with the videoconference didn’t solve, and participants had problems to use it easily. Grant Agreement nr. 250449 26 HSH Project Progress Report 4 Italian Pilot, update for the fourth reporting period. 1. Current situation: Recruitment o Randomized: 65 o Study: 30 dropouts: 6 dropped out (1deceased; 1 because the relative disagreed, 4 because disappointed by technical problems); o Control: 35 Installation o In Touch: 30 After replacement of 4 units, again 3 still have problems. o Ello!: 30 Distributed. Start of usage from mid April 2013. Still connection problems make difficult the start of regular service. Patients don’t have interest in this feature. o Environment sensors: 30 Movement, Smoke, Temperature, Water o Medical sensors: All 30 participants have received weight scales and blood pressure monitors. 10 Pulse/Oximeters were given to patients on the basis of specific pathology; 19 Glucometers were given to patients on the basis of specific pathology; 15 ECGs were given to patients on the basis of specific pathology; o Mambo: 30 Distributed but not used by patients because they refure to use a second GSM. To install o Winmatic: cannot be placed (please see D6.2 for more details) o Climatic: cannot be placed (please see D6.2 for more details) Data collection o CRF: all done at T0 and T12 and T24 o Diaries: not collected Call Centre/ Helpdesk Activity o Regular service started operational 24/7 since the 1st of September 2012.. Replacement of the internet connection from UMTS to 4G for the all the 30 participants. Configuration of alarms on the Portal done. Definition of the protocol with the call centre done. 2. Project team work Follow up of patients pushing for equipment regular usage. Grant Agreement nr. 250449 27 HSH Project Progress Report 4 Push on patients for teleconferencing usage Push on patient for Mambo usage Collection of data for Qualitative Analysis Collection of data for T24 measurements 3. Outstanding Problems The reluctance we experienced in the previous period in using the system by the patients has continued also for technical problems that affected the InTouch and their fragility to power blackouts. Moreover it is confirmed that probably the great inexperience in using technology in general and the low level of digital culture is a barrier to the diffusion of this kind of system in a countryside population with low level of education. More attention to training of patients and of their relatives should be given when trying to deploy the system in such a social environment. A tighter support to elderly patients would be needed in order to avoid disaffection to the system. Irish Pilot, update for the fourth reporting period. 1.

Progress Report 3 HSH Project Progress Report 4 Section 5 Project management Fourth reporting period The project management activities carried out during the fourth reporting period have been described in the subsection related to WP1 above. Below the challenges and achievements of this reporting period can be found: One important activity which has been carried out in spring 2013 has been to prepare the third Annual Review which was held in Brussels on the 25ht of april, 2013: the outcome of this meeting was that the Commission found the HOME SWEET HOME Consortium not fully performing its contractual obligation and gave them the deadline of the 30th of June to reissue a number of deliverables and documents in order to bring them to a satisfactory level of quality. This was done although some iterations were needed until at the beginning of December the final version of the review report was issued by the review panel giving the project the green light to continue. The most critical situation was the one of the Italian pilot, due to a number of factors which have been mentioned several times. Although most of the technical problems were sorted out, the critical situation continued due to the difficulties encountered by ASL Latina to allocate the proper staff to the project, which resulted in a low level of uptime of the devices at the patients’ homes, and this situation has continued until the end of the project. As regards the other three sites (namely Belgium, Spain and Ireland) the situation was better and most of the project’s activities were carried out as foreseen. The situation in Latina, due to the problems reported above, never reached a level comparable to the other pilot sites and some of the data collection activities such as the completion of the Participant diaries have not been carried out regularly or not at all. This raises issues about the comparability of data between Latina and the other pilot sites. On the other hand Latina is providing invaluable lessons about the implication of deploying AAL platforms and services in a rural and mountainous area where nothing is easy and where the cultural background is very different of that found in most urban areas. And this even without considering that the trial in Latina has coincided with the worst financial and political crises that Italy and Lazio have gone through since the end of the Second World War. Although Latina has not provided scientifically valid evidence, it has provided us with a lot of understanding of the problems that we can expect to come across when we will try to roll out AAL services throughput the European Union. The recommendation of the Management Team has been to keep Latina until the end of the Project and to do the very best to squeeze out of this experience as much information as possible e.g. by interviewing people there rather than asking them to provide written contributions what has turned out to be very difficult for them to do, which was done on the occasion of the qualitative study.

However none of them represent the reality of the deliverables because the report requested by the Project Officer for the Follow-up meeting in June 2012 was erroneously numbered D1.7 while it should not have been given any number.

The impact of such a coverage was underestimated at the time of preparing the budget. The way the Contact Centres have organised themselves to provide the service varies from one site to another. This explains the differences in the effort claims between Darco and the other partners providing this kind of service. The issue will be thoroughly covered during the Annual Review.

This document contains the answers to the recommendations formulated by the Home Sweet Home reviewers in the Technical Review Report dated 01/10/2013. The response to recommendation n. 8 was already provided by the first deadline set out in the above mentioned report. In the meantime an additional letter was produced and forwarded by the Home Sweet Home Management team to the Project Officer clarifying the HSH consortium’s position regarding the Business Plan Deliverable. This letter is attached to the present report together with the other relevant annexes. Comment/request Sec. 1.b Recommendations 1) Produce a table comparing impact indicators planned in DoW compared to the actual status where appropriate Grant Agreement nr. 225023 Action to be taken/ Comments status Although the KPI table was already included in D1.12 v10 (c. 29th August) on page 45, we have extracted the said table and updated it. The revised table is attached as “HSH KPIs ex D1.12 v10” Done 64 HSH Project Progress Report 4 Comment/request 2) For the Louth pilot, a control check should be completed soon concerning the response times of the map display in the navigation system Grant Agreement nr. 225023 Action to be taken/ status Comments In August 2013 after validation Done tests run by CATTID, which identified the problem in the configuration of the Mambo, 2 test devices in the Louth lab were reconfigured and reset. Another test was carried out on both devices using the same conditions as the May test. Both devices were visible on the portal map. All Mambo devices were subsequently recalled and reset. At PSC 8 in Treviso we were tasked by the Project Management to carry out a response test on the portal. This test was carried out in late October and early November. Results showed that the response upload for change of position on the portal was anything from 2 to 3 ½ minutes depending on cloud cover and location. This is normal considering that the Mambo is configured to send an SMS with the position every 2 minutes. 65 HSH Project Progress Report 4 Comment/request 3) The statistical justification should be given soon as to why 30% dropouts are acceptable as opposed to the previously mentioned 20%, A simple statement is not sufficient Grant Agreement nr. 225023 Action to be taken/ status Comments The justification was provided Done in detail during the Review Meeting. The same arguments have been compiled in a short document which is attached as “Comment on power Calculation”. The main point is that the consortium never said that 20% was the maximum acceptable threshold. The attached document contains the graph which was shown and commented during the last review meeting clearly demonstrating that even 30% dropouts would produce a meaningful result. 66 HSH Project Progress Report 4 Comment/request Action to be taken/ status Comments 4) Resolve the 5 minute delay in This is the same problem Done locating Mambo users on GPS soon reported under – modern technology simply recommendation n.2 but for the doesn’t suffer these problems other sites as well. Apparently it is a problem due to the Mambo devices which has to be considered and end-of-life product. Tests are being run with a state-of-the-art smartphone and the first results are very satisfactory, however it is clearly note feasible to change the device three months before the end of the project, if nothing else because this would imply a new round of training for the elderly persons. One of the important lessons we have learned from the pilots is that the system will only be accepted by the users if the functions currently provided by the Mambo are embedded into the smartphone that a growing number of elderly person have learnt to use. At the same time, this will also solve the delay problem experienced with the Mambo, as the tests have shown. Grant Agreement nr. 225023 67 HSH Project Progress Report 4 Comment/request 5) Provide evidence that the risk and issue registers have been updated and are now in such a form as to enable identification of relevant risks, and manage speedy resolution of issues where these risks crystallise 6) Submit the Retention Plan and show how it has helped to avoid further dropouts 7) Submit a completed Deliverable 1.12 Grant Agreement nr. 225023 Action to be taken/ Comments The project is now approaching its natural end and therefore the probability that new risk situation arise is becoming lower and lower, this is the reason why the updated risk analysis attached is just an updated version of the previous one. Two different pieces of information are provided: The Risk Management logs, one for the whole project and one for each pilot site. This is the standard risk analysis file. Only for the Irish Pilot an update has been provided, as for the other ones no new risk factors have been identified. The Issue register, where the main issues encountered in the project’s lifetime are listed and the remedial actions are summarised. A document reflecting the ways the pilot sites have dealt with the problem of Dropouts is attached as “Retention Plan” The revised, final version is attached. status Done Done Done 68 HSH Project Progress Report 4 Comment/request 8) Submit a completed Deliverable 3.6 which includes a comparison of HSH costs with competing services in each country, demonstrating that the proposed HSH service is pricecompetitive, or better, with other similar services This should include a discussion on the proposed replacements for the telehealthcare unit, the Mambo, the teleconferencing service and, if judged worth continuing with, the domotic devices. See more details in Section 5 following Grant Agreement nr. 225023 Action to be taken/ Comments The market addressed by the elderly care providers participating in HOME SWEET HOME is not a consumer market, but a captive one, and it will remain captive for the foreseeable future. It does not make sense therefore to compare the services they provide with other services price-wise because they will be offered for free to individuals qualifying for these after they have been assessed. The purpose of the project is not comparing one technological platform with another, but rather understanding which out of the wide spectrum of services provided through the platform are worthwhile to provide in the future. At first glance, the domotic devices are not easily adaptable to an existing flat or house, and therefore in the future they will only be considered when new flats will be built, which is certainly the case in Antwerp. Whether the domotic devices eventually installed in the flats are the HomeMatic ones foreseen in HOME SWEET HOME or other ones is totally irrelevant for the purpose of the Project, which was never aimed at evaluating the merits of a specific platform compared to another. The replacement component issue is now covered in D3.6, but the other requests are not appropriate in the framework of the Project and have been ignored. status Done, D3.6 submitted on 11th November. 69 HSH Project Progress Report 4 Comment/request Action to be taken/ Comments The project is requested to respond Although we can understand to the recommendations 1-7 above the dissatisfaction of the by 1 December 2013 and Reviewers with some aspects recommendation 8 by 11 November of the Project, we can hardly 2013 If these deadlines are not met, see the rationale of terminating the reviewers are currently minded the Project less than 3 months to recommend to the Commission before its natural end. This will that it begins the process of ending not allow the Commission to the project save any money, and will hamper the Project to provide useful input for future project and into the EIP for Active and Health Ageing which addresses exactly the same issues as HOME SWEET HOME although at a far higher level. The project’s biggest problem is The project does not try to what to try to commercialise at the commercialise any platform or end of EC funding: any product. HOME SWEET HOME is run by elderly care providers and is aimed at evaluating the impact of ICTbased service on a number of indicators covering the acceptance, the usability, the sustainability, etc. of these services. The platform is just an enabler for the provision of services and represents the technology level at the start of the Project. There are no doubts that if the Project started today, there would be a different platform because technology has evolved in the meantime but the functionality of it will remain basically the same. Should the participating elderly care decide to continue providing the services, a replacement of some elements of the solution would be more than appropriate and the conditions for such a status Grant Agreement nr. 225023 70 All recommendations have been addressed. Answer provided HSH Project Progress Report 4 Comment/request The original tele-healthcare device is now so out of date that in its current form it is unsaleable – as stated in D3.6, the tablet replacement should be explored immediately Grant Agreement nr. 225023 Action to be taken/ status Comments replacement will have to be discussed between the individual providers and the platform supplier. It is worth noting in this context that Appendix III to the DoW (section APP.III.10) contains the commitment of the participating elderly care providers to continue providing the services after the end of the EU funded phase if the Project demonstrates that the services “have a positive impact on the various aspects considered in the evaluation (health, wellbeing, user satisfaction, etc.) and that they are financially sustainable for all the elderly persons who qualify for receiving them because of their social, physical and mental conditions”. Such a change is not foreseen Answer provided in the contract between the platform supplier and the elderly care providers participating in HOME SWEET HOME. The upgrade of the platform, which would not make sense for the few months remaining before the end of the EU-funded phase especially considering the time need to retrain the older user to use a different piece of technology. 71 HSH Project Progress Report 4 Comment/request Action to be taken/ status Comments The Mambo device seems to be Because project excluded older quite hopeless with long & critical people with dementia, it delays that modern smartphones effectively excluded the most simply don’t have: it cannot be likely persons to benefit from either cost effective or customer it.

Grant Agreement nr. 225023 Action to be taken/ Comments We have to insist on the fact none of the partners participating in HOME SWEET HOME is in the business of providing services on the free market. All of them are institutional provider of elderly care and have a captive market represented by the population they are paid for looking after. Competition exists of course among the platform suppliers but this aspect falls completely outside the scope of the Project. In the procurement of platforms for the continuation of the current service or the extension of it, the participating elderly care providers will put the potential providers in competition with one another to get the best value for money but this, again, falls completely outside the scope of the Project. status 73 HSH Project Progress Report 4 Comment/request In addition, too many difficulties have appeared in the implementation, usability, market expectancies, etc of the system. Also, preliminary results are not very encouraging that the use of such a system would have an impact on elderly people’s health status or quality of life. Regarding the “Impact indicators” table, in most cases it is said N/A, so, why are they considered as indicators? Also, in those indicators that are explained, the results are not very good. Specially worrying is that of falls, that is not working (explained before)? Deliverable n. 1.12 Action to be taken/ status Comments It is too early to infer that the use of such a system would have an impact on elderly people’s health status or quality of life. As in any RCT results cannot be published before the end on the Project. Having said that, no major changes are expected on the people’s health status because a survey of some 135 RCT of telemonitoring conducted a couple of years ago by Richard Wootton, Director of Research of the Norwegian Centre for Integrated Care and Telemedicine, showed that, on average, telemonitoring has a neutral effect of health status. Of the contrary, DREAMING, a predecessor project to HOME SWEET HOME showed a statistically significant improvement in the health related quality of life. There are no reasons why HOME SWEET HOME should not get to the same conclusions. It was expected at the start of the project that fall detection algorithms would improve. In practice, there appears still to be no acceptable algorithm / device that detects falls reliably.

Since this is the 3th year where our participants are using the HOME SWEET HOME services we still need to focus on avoiding dropouts in both the control and the study group. Besides our focus on our participants and their relatives we used the fourth period also to inform the other stakeholders (see arrows) about the results, lessons learned and other important information about Home Sweet Home. Moreless since we will close down the project a lot of other dissemination opportunities will occur, now that we can release the gathered information about 4 years of Home Sweet Home. Grant Agreement nr. 225023 76 HSH Project Progress Report 4 As some of our dissemination actions are not specifically for one target group we summarised our dissemination actions here : 2. Personalised communication : As mentioned in the former Reviews our focus remained also in this period to keep our participants and their relatives motivated by stimulating them and informing them about the project. Besides the physical visits we also spent a lot of effort in making newsletters to keep them informed but also to make them realise how important they are irrespective of the fact that they are in the study or in the control group. o Here are some examples from the newsletters we made in Belgium and Ireland at the final period.

Website As agreed at the former Review we had changed our ‘CMS’ system from Smartsite to Drupal. In the final period we have made some small changes and upgrades to the website. o o o o o o Our objectives for the new website where the following and we think that all of them where obtained. Easier to use and maintain technology Cost efficient (Drupal is an open source technology) More modern and fresh look and a more dynamic website More friendly in use so that other participants can add information on it by themselves Integration with new dissemination tools such as twitter, movies, … More living website Grant Agreement nr. 225023 84 HSH Project Progress Report 4 Due to the fact that at this stage of the project we have gathered a lot of information that can be disseminated, we have decided to maintain de website until at least the end of 2015. At the end of 2015 we will evaluate the use of the website and the necessity to have it running longer. Grant Agreement nr. 225023 85 HSH Project Progress Report 4 7. Brochures & leaflets A leaflet has been produced in order to inform about the entire Project. Partners can use this leaflet as a basis for their own translated version, which can include specific information related to their target audience. The leaflet has also been announced on LinkedIn, Facebook and our website and spread through the different events we participated in. Qualitative analysis One of the remarks following one of our project reviews consisted in gathering qualitative information about the HSH users and their feeling about the project. Therefore a qualitative analysis was set up and together with the support of the Advisory Board and Age we have produced a publication on the outcome of a small qualitative study that took place within the Home Sweet Home user group. The study aimed at shedding the light to barriers and enablers for the acceptance of new technologies that where introduced to help older persons live autonomously and manage better their health. It is written from the perspective of older persons who use technologies in their everyday living and it is addressed to all the stakeholders who are involved in the development and deployment of such solutions : researchers, service providers, industry and SME’s, public authorities, health and social care professionals, informal caregivers, insurers and mutualities and older persons themselves. Instead of discussing elements specific only to the project, the publication is drafted in a way that can be useful to various similar settings and sets of services. First some information about Home Sweet Home and the study is provided. Then the results of the study are summarized as answers to the questions : who are older persons and what matters to them ? In the end, recommendations for future research and practice are given, before presenting the case studies, which were analysed in order to reach conclusions and lessons learned. Our qualitative analysis is being disseminated via the website, website of partners (Age, ZB, …), Twitter, Linked-in, … Grant Agreement nr. 225023 86 HSH Project Progress Report 4 Grant Agreement nr. 225023 87 HSH Project Progress Report 4 Grant Agreement nr. 225023 88 HSH Project Progress Report 4 8. Video on HSH In May 2012 we made some videos in order to inform our stakeholders about HSH: o A day in the life of some of our participants (we followed some of our participants during a day in order to show the public about HSH, how it is being used, what it means, …); o A video about the project with short interviews with team members and users; o A short video per item in order to present the means and use; o A short video about the installation Grant Agreement nr. 225023 89 HSH Project Progress Report 4 In June 2013 an additional video was made by the Spanish delegation for dissemination use. http://youtu.be/NFquHKt9_-A o o o o o o o These videos where displayed and published on: HSH Website; YouTube; Websites of the HSH partners; Facebook pages; Linked-in pages; Shown in several occasions as, e.g. at the final Workshop, … … Grant Agreement nr. 225023 90 HSH Project Progress Report 4 9.

Grant Agreement nr. 225023 91 HSH Project Progress Report 4 19/11/2013 – Regional Conference in Italy – Rome by Darco Servizi. The occasion of the conference was the first showing on cinema of a reportage about migrants working in Rome as long term carer for older people or people with disabilities, called Grant Agreement nr. 225023 92 HSH Project Progress Report 4 “BADAMI”. The Italian word “bàdami” means “take care of me” and it recalls both the word “badante” which is an informal way of referring to “long term carers” and the need to better take care of long term carers and the families of older people and people with disabilities. Agenda The Italian Regional Conference was held in Rome on the 19th of November 2013 at Cinema Aquila, via L’Aquila 58. h. 18.00 Welcoming, open desk h. 18.30 – 18,40 Greetings and presentation of the documentary (reading by Mariangela Forcina) h. 18.40 – 19.00 Showing of the reportage BADAMI h. 19.00 – 20.00 Speakers (5 to 10 minutes per speaker) Speaker’s panel: Larzia Lo Guzzo, Curator of the reportage – moderator Mariangela Forcina, Director and photographer; Mimosa Martini, Reporter; Marco D'Angelantonio, Director General of HiMsa-Bruxelles Cecile Kyenge, Minister of Integration of Italy; Rita Visini,Counsellor on Social Policies of Lazio Region; Erica Battaglia President of the Commission on Social Issues of ROMA CAPITALE; Mario Monge, President of SOLCO Consortium of social cooperatives; Maurizio Marotta, President COIN Cooperative Integrate Onlus. A long list of invitations was made. The parterre of the cinema could count on the presence of more than a hundred people The conference was addressed primarily to institutions and policy Grant Agreement nr. 225023 93 HSH Project Progress Report 4 makers, to show the problems of families which are not supported by a strong net of social and health services, together with the problems of migrant long term carers who have difficulties in working in new, culturally different environments, with no clear recognition of their skills and tasks to do within their job, and no support from institutions. There was also a strong presence of professionals coming from the third sector, which is the main actor providing private long term care services in Italy, as well as dealing with migrant workers. The presence of the delegates of Home Sweet Home had the objective to show how technology in health care services is crucial to help better off the life of older people and people with disabilities and to raise the quality of work of long term carers, releasing them from some responsibilities and giving them easier instruments to care. At the same time the new technologies of tele-care prove to be less expensive than traditional care, helping public health care to foresee a more organized and cost effective integrated care to people, especially in this actual framework of ageing and economical crisis. That is why on the desk in the foyer of the cinema there was a table with Home Sweet Home leaflets and a monitor showing the project’s dissemination videos. The breakdown of attendees is shown below. Table : Attendees by category Category Institutions – National level 2% Institutions – Regional Level 5% Institutions – Local level 5% Third sector – Migrants 32% Third sector – Disability 25% Third sector – Social Care 31% Industry 1% The full agenda, the press-book and some of the contribution of the speakers can be found in Italian language in the website of “Presidio Del Lazio” which was the promoter of the event together with Home Sweet Home. http://www.presidiolazio.it All dissemination materials of the event and some of the proceedings (in Italian) can also be found in the download area of Home Sweet Home project portal. The dissemination activities carried out for the Italian Regional Conference were focused on the publication of leaflets, brochures, posters, invitations and the catalogue and DVD featuring the reportage shown at the event. . These activities are outlined in the following sections.

Bearing in mind the legal and ethical framework in which social care is provided in Europe and drawing from the experience of AGE Platform Europe, Nena Georgantzi, Legal Officer, presented older persons’ views on ICT for care and independent living. In addition, she exposed lessons learned from the Home Sweet Home, which finalised a qualitative study on ICT acceptance from the perspective of older users. The conference was recorded and all presentations are available online here. 14/05/2014 – 5th interactive Congres Facility Management in Care – Antwerp - belgium On Wednesday 14 May – Zorgbedrijf Antwerp will participate in a Care Congres about Facility Management by organising some workshops about Home Sweet Home – the lessons learned and trends for the future. Grant Agreement nr. 225023 99 HSH Project Progress Report 4 Grant Agreement nr. 225023 100 HSH Project Progress Report 4 Grant Agreement nr. 225023 101 HSH Project Progress Report 4 Final Conference – Barcelona, January 16th, 2014 Addressed to the stakeholders of the Ambient Assisted Living (AAL) market of products and services for the elder, E4S conference provided a forum for discussion on the different strategies that can be approached to reach the market in this area, exploring also the ways forward to respond to the challenge from the technical side. Experts, IT developers, and end users had the opportunity to share a day with an open exchange of news and views about the ICT support oriented to the Active and Healthy Ageing. The conference consisted of a one-day event, divided in two sessions, the morning and the afternoon, with a lunch break for networking. By 2025 more than 20% of Europeans will be 65 or over, with a particularly rapid increase in the number of over 80s. Greater life expectancy is of course a positive result of progress, but it raises important challenges for the 21st century: how to meet the higher demand for healthcare? How to adapt health systems to the needs of an ageing population while keeping them sustainable in societies with smaller workforce? Moreover, the demographic changes are expected to have substantial consequences on public finances in the EU. On the basis of current policies, age-related public expenditures (pensions, health-care and long-term care) are projected to increase by 4.1% to around 29% of GDP between 2010 and 2060. In the context of an ageing Europe, with some of its member states endangered by the failure of the welfare state and questioned its capacity to maintain the social model, the opportunity to invest in innovative services built around new technologies that can provide cost effective solutions to cope with the shortcuts the Public services are facing is a safe bet for the future. Grant Agreement nr. 225023 102 HSH Project Progress Report 4 The way the European Union, through the R&D programmes of the EC, has been addressing the topic is a reflection of the evolution undergone in Europe and the demographic changes related with life expectancy occurring in the last 15 years. The development of a new market for the elderly should combine, with the help of the technologies, the empowerment of the elderly in taking care of their health, with the self-management of their disease and a whole new set of services that should satisfy the growing needs. To make technology a key enabler for the success of AAL solutions, the providers have to assure users a simple and affordable access to new services and apps that support their current devices and particular user interface needs. The availability of common open platforms based on a standardized approach using existing components, services, and external systems seems to be the key to guarantee the feasibility and sustainability of innovative solutions. In this context, E4S conference provided a forum for understanding and discussing different strategies in this area, and to explore ways forward for the future to respond to the challenge from the technical side. Progress so far (represented by the organizing projects and their strategies to promote innovation) and the growth of the critical-mass to increase the chances of impact for individual projects in the real deployment of a market for AAL products and services were the protagonists. Do they actually have a market now?. What can we learn from them? From different perspectives, universAAL as enabler and Home Sweet Home as way to the market, showed their expectation for the short and long-term markets. E4S also had the pleasure to host Alexandre Kalache (President, International Longevity Centre – Brazil) as keynote speaker who offered to the audience a critical overview of a social issue becoming a market opportunity highlighting government’s point of views from inclusion to the active and healthy aging and empowerment. On the other hand Jan Komarek presented the EC view: the current programme Horizon2020, the future and the main trends as well the expectations of the EC on next projects. Afterwards three round tables have been arranged involving representatives of Public Administrations, Users, the Industry, and Insurance companies allowing speakers and attendees to share opinions and make questions on the following three main topics: - - The barriers between the medical and the social services: integrating care. The view of the Public Administrations as enablers: billing, reimbursement models, and public procurement. The IT perspective and the E4S: From open source to interoperability and standards. From legal issues to regulations. How flexible can we expect the market to be? What kind of technical/standardisation progress is needed? How to assure the right to privacy and security in this context? The boundary between the healthy elderly person and the patient: The client and the user. Different strategies to address the market? What the users have to say?. Do we listen to them? Ethical issues. Grant Agreement nr. 225023 103 HSH Project Progress Report 4 Thanks to the interaction among speakers and participants, the event achieved its main objective: to promote a debate about ways to make it real. Additionally, the conference hosted during the whole day a ‘Demo lounge’, where the projects ‘universAAL', 'Home Sweet Home' and others European projects in the area of AAL showed demonstrations of their results and features. Lastly, the conference offered also to the attendees a unique opportunity of networking with other people operating in ICT and health sectors and explore potential synergies. Moreover, lessons learnt, strategies for bridging pilots to real market for deployment or increasing the chances of impact for individual projects in the real deployment of a market for AAL products and services have been some of the topics at the centre of the conference.

Future dissemination on Home Sweet Home As the project is coming to an end we are at a point that we have a lot of information that can be spread to the different stakeholders and can be beneficiary to other EU projects in this field of work. Home Sweet Home is just one piece of the puzzle to build and extend the evidence base on the impact if eHealth, eInclusion and Ambient Assisted Living on elderly care and on the independence of older people. Therefore we will carry on sharing the lessons learnt through the successes and failures in deploying ICT-based care services. As you see in the figure below, Home Sweet Home is just one piece of the puzzle and can add interesting information in order to support independence. The Home Sweet Home results are being set out in a number of deliverables that will be put public and will be available on the Home Sweet Home Website, like : D3.8 Clinical and Quality of life impact assessment. Grant Agreement nr. 225023 112 HSH Project Progress Report 4 D3.10 Social Impact assessment. D3.11 Economic Impact assessment. D3.12 User Satisfaction assessment. D3.13 Barriers to deployment.
