| Annotation | Telecare involves the use of electronic sensors and aids that make the home environment safer so that people can live at home, independently, for longer. This briefing then is part of the Department of Health's prevention package, a key component of the government's strategy for an ageing society. The package aims to raise the focus on older people's prevention services and encourage their use, ultimately improving older people's health well-being and independence. (KJ). |
