In addition to holding the symposium, the Chair of Information Systems, in particular IT for the ageing society (Prof. Dr. Claudia Müller) organized its own workshop on the topic of “Digital platforms in regional healthcare” through its employees Stephan Krayter, David Struzek and Jasmin Lehmann. The aim was to discuss the wishes, requirements and possibilities of digital platforms in order to identify initial use cases for the development of corresponding platforms. The high number of participants in the workshop impressively demonstrated the great interest of regional healthcare stakeholders in this topic.
Background:
Sub-projects 4 ‘Health & Ageing’ and 5 ‘Social Affairs & Inclusion’ in the FUSION project aim to contribute to making access to health, care and social services clearer, lower-threshold and more local and citizen-oriented. To this end, they aim to develop practice-oriented and digitally supported transfer solutions in rural regions. Using a participatory approach, new concepts and solutions are to be developed and tested together with citizens, experts and researchers from the region. The main aim is to answer questions about access with new possibilities of digitalization.
