I-CARE4OLD
Older patients with complex chronic conditions are mainly in home care and nursing home settings. Many times, healthcare professionals in these settings lack appropriate decision support. In this context, the EU-funded I-CARE4OLD project will develop and test next-generation decision support using high-quality internationally standardised routine care data based on a comprehensive assessment e-platform tool, InterRAI. Specifically, the project's multidisciplinary international consortium has collated longitudinal data from 52 million older recipients of home care and nursing home care from 8 countries including reliable, valid and harmonised comprehensive assessments of functional capacities, diseases and treatments. The focus was on predicting outcomes and the impact of treatments.
