摘要

人口老龄化给家庭护理项目带来了巨大的压力,这些项目需要为复杂的护理客户提供必要的服务,让他们留在家中,避免被送往机构或住院治疗。寻找创新和具有成本效益的方法来满足老年人和为他们提供支助的保健工作者的保健需求,正成为一个紧迫的问题。家庭辅助技术,如预防跌倒和药物管理工具,已被证明对生活在社区的自主老年人的健康结果和生活质量产生积极影响。本文献综述通过对“老人技术”领域当前文献的全面研究,确定了可能改善复杂老年人家庭护理的支持性技术,同时减少照顾者的压力。过去的研究表明,在家庭护理支持中采用技术有利于保持老年人的独立性,同时减少跌倒、药物错误和照顾者压力的风险。本综述的研究结果强调了目前如何将技术整合到家庭护理中,以及医疗保健系统如何更好地将这些技术纳入社区居住老年人的家庭护理支持中。

Technology Supports for Community-Dwelling Frail Older Adults
Population aging is placing extensive pressure on home care programs to provide the necessary services for complex care clients to remain in their homes and avoid institutionalization or hospitalization. Finding innovative and cost-effective ways of meeting the healthcare needs of older adults and the healthcare workers who support them is becoming a pressingly urgent issue. Assistive in-home technologies, such as tools for fall prevention and medication management, have been demonstrated to positively impact health outcomes and the quality of life of autonomous older adults living in the community. This literature review identifies supportive technologies that may improve the home care of complex older adults while reducing caregiver stress through a comprehensive examination of current literature in the field of “gerontechnology.” Past research has demonstrated the adoption of technology for home care support is beneficial in retaining older adult independence while reducing the risk of falls, medication errors, and caregiver stress. The findings of this review highlight how technologies are currently being integrated into home care and how the healthcare system can better include these technologies for home care support in the care of community-dwelling older adults.
