Formal and informal caregivers Sample Clauses

Formal and informal caregivers. For formal (care providers) and informal caregivers, the continuous collaboration and communication offered by the Co-Net network will possibly provide increased continuity and efficiency (time saving and thus cost saving). This could improve quality of care provision and reduce workload, stress, and demand for resources. Interestingly, during focus group sessions MRSP care coordinators mentioned that such a system could reduce workload, and thus stress. According to the members of the MRPS “Service to the Residents” and animator members, the system could improve and simplify the communication between seniors and caregivers and the organization of group activities provided that: (1) caregivers can check whatever the seniors received and read a message sent, (2) all the seniors are equipped in their apartment. Nevertheless, MRPS nurses suggested that a system like Miraculous-Life “could increase the work charge, especially at the first stages of the implementation”. Also at ORBIS caregivers mentioned that in the beginning of the implementation of the avatar and the process of getting used to and comfortable with the system workload could increase due to questions of seniors. Furthermore also older caregivers could have challenges with this new innovations. These issues are important during implementation: elderly need training and time to get used but (in)formal caregivers and volunteers as well. The experiences from the caregivers during trials indicate that some of the anticipated benefits are indeed very likely to occur:  The number of support alerts could decreases when using the VSP. This could affect workload reduction in the future. Elderly also call for support sometimes to get attention, this type of calls is likely to decrease.  The VSP could affect loneliness (caregivers indicated this as very important).  The VSP possible effects the feeling of autonomy of the elderly and thereby possible the quality of life. Apart from the possible reduction of workload, these benefits can also help to reduce costs. A reduction of resources, both financial and human, is therefore possible. In some European countries, like Germany, there is a growing shortage of careworkers. Workload reduction can contribute to solving this problem.
