WHAT IS THE OBJECTIVE?

For both formal and informal caregivers, this initiative aims to empower them to be able to make decisions and apply theknowledge of technology acquired in training in the areas that suit them best.

TECSOS participates in the Housing Care project together with 6 other European entities, cofunded by the erasmus+ programme of the european union.

WHAT DOES IT CONSIST OF?

European reports in recent years related to the care of the elderly and people in situations of dependency have clearly highlighted a major problem in these areas. The situation of carers is not sustainable if the same model is maintained in the future, there are no jobs to fill and there are fewer and fewer people available, there is little knowledge about technology, carers often carry out their jobs under job insecurity situations, among other indicators.

One of the keys that were detected that could improve the situation is that technology formation courses may lead to a point where caregivers are well trained in the use of technologies and can also rely on them in their day-to-day work to improve their job position, improve their mental and physical health and also better help the people they care for.

This is where the Housing Care project comes into play, hand in hand with the consortium of 6 European entities and the TECSOS Foundation as experts in social technology. 

 

WHAT IS THE STATUS?

 

The project began in January 2022 and will run until December 2023.

 

 

At the end of April 2022, representatives of all the entities involved in the Housing Care project met in Aarhus, Denmark to review the milestones achieved so far and work on the increasingly specific details of the materials and structure of the training on -line.

 

 

The next steps will be carried out online together with the other project partners until the next face-to-face meeting, which is expected in October 2022, Ireland.
