The main aim of DREAMING (elDeRly-friEndly Alarm handling and MonitorING) project is keeping elderly people in their home environment as long as their physical and mental conditions allow this. However, this goal cannot be achieved with technology only. So, the participating Social and Health Authorities will keep providing and enhance their offering of non-technology based services which are essential for supporting the autonomy of elderly people (e.g. visits by community nurses and social workers, psychological support, delivery of hot meals and shopping, special transportations for people with limited mobility, house cleaning, etc.)
