“…However, negative experiences were also mentioned, and a variety of different, even conflicting experiences were described by professionals, older people or caregivers. The received benefits are in line with previous studies in which usefulness [ 17 , 19 , 24 , 26 ], and keeping older people up with the world [ 22 ] have been stated as being important in technology use. Ease of use [ 19 , 27 ] and technology performance [ 19 ] have also been found to support the use in daily practice.…”

Background There is a need for better adoption of technology to meet the needs of home care professionals, older people, and informal caregivers. Methods Mixed methods were used to describe and analyse quantitative and qualitative data in a Finnish governmental programme called KATI. The study was three-fold: it 1) listed what kinds of technologies were piloted and deployed in a national study, 2) provided information from the perspectives of home care professionals about requirements to use technology by using focus-group interviews, and 3) assessed experiences of how the adoption of technology changes work and work processes over time by using repeated surveys. Informants in interviews (n = 25) and surveys (n = 90) were home care professionals, who also described the perspectives of older people and informal caregivers. The conceptual models framing the study were adapted from the Technology Acceptance Model and DirVA PROVE-IT. Results There were 80 technology pilots, in which variety of technologies were followed in home care. Familiarity with, commitment to and understanding of technology benefits were considered to be requirements for the technology to be used. The adoption of technology provided new skills and information about older people’s wellbeing, realisation of treatment and new possibilities in home care. It developed new procedures to focus on older people’s needs and motivated professionals by gained concrete aid. It enabled them to leave out some concrete procedures as unnecessary. On the other hand, there were also pessimistic and negative experiences when technology use provided nothing new or did not change anything. Conclusions The adoption of technology is dependent on the technology and its integration into the prevailing service practice. When they both work, it is possible to leave out unnecessary procedures in care, allocate resources and save time. It is possible to be aware of older people’s safety and how they cope at home, find new ways to get involved in older people’s lives, gain insight, and make changes at work. Continuous on-site training, modifications in service practices and communication throughout organisations is needed.

“…Severity of disease in emergency patients, self-care ability: according to the industry recommended standard published by the National Health and Family Planning Commission Barthes Index Evaluation Table, the evaluation can be divided into four grades, which are, respectively, heavy dependence, moderate dependence, mild dependence, and complete self-care. Mental health status: the Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale is a self-rating scale [ 21 ], including 2 subscales of anxiety and depression, respectively, for 7 questions of anxiety (A) and depression (D). 0–7 are asymptomatic; 8–10 are suspicious.…”

This paper is combined with the intelligent nursing information system to build the emergency nursing platform architecture, from the system emergency procedures, system functionality, network environment deployment, and database design aspects of the discussion. Based on hospital information security, the nursing monitoring system of the intelligent nursing information system is constructed to realize network communication, which is clear and intuitive. The intelligent information system is applied to safety control, medical order information, condition information, and information inquiry, which can save working time and complete the rapid transmission and accurate execution of medical order, making the network communication of medical care more quick and convenient and maximizing the overall efficiency. Based on the disordered phenomenon of registration triage, the Relief algorithm is used to classify the aetiology and triage, and the combination of medical advice, information query, and IT technology is optimized, so as to eliminate the phenomenon of round diagnosis, insert number, and improve the medical environment of waiting for diagnosis, taking medicine, examination, and testing. Finally, through the testing of system information security, information traceability, and rapid information query, the problems in nursing management have been basically solved.

Background The worldwide increase in older persons demands technological solutions to combat the shortage of caregiving and to enable aging in place. Smart home health technologies (SHHTs) are promoted and implemented as a possible solution from an economic and practical perspective. However, ethical considerations are equally important and need to be investigated. Methods we conducted a systematic review according to the PRISMA guidelines to investigate if and how ethical questions are discussed in the field of SHHTs in caregiving for older persons. Results 156 peer-reviewed articles published in English, German and French were retrieved and analyzed across 10 electronic databases. Using narrative analysis, 7 ethical categories were mapped: privacy, autonomy, responsibility, human vs. artificial interactions, trust, ageism and stigma, and other concerns. Conclusions The findings of our systematic review show the (lack of) ethical consideration when it comes to the development and implementation of SHHTs for older persons. Our analysis is useful to promote careful ethical consideration when carrying out technology development, research and deployment to care for older persons. Registration We registered our systematic review in the PROSPERO network under CRD42021248543
