| description | The ageing of society has become a significant global issue, with over 30% of the population aged 65 and above in some developed countries. In this context, the required forms of healthcare and medical services are also evolving. Integrated care, which seamlessly connects medical institutions, nursing facilities, local communities, and the homes of patients, is becoming increasingly vital. Medical IoT, utilising advanced technologies such as wearable devices, is expected to progress further and play a critical role in the success of such care. Many older individuals suffer from multiple chronic conditions, making collaboration among healthcare professionals across various specialities essential. Efficient cooperation between various professions and institutions, along with the swift and appropriate sharing of essential information, is highly effective in many areas, including patient safety, the effective delivery of care, and, ultimately, improving patient and family experience. Older individuals are vulnerable both physically and socially, and it is vital for society as a whole to support them. This Special Issue brings together research and discussions from various perspectives on the crucial issue of healthcare in an ageing society, gathering insights to improve both the quality of medical care and the patient experience. This reprint consists of 11 chapters, including 9 research reports and 2 reviews. We hope this reprint serves as a guide for exploring sustainable healthcare solutions for the future and for considering new frameworks and foundations. |
