Hot Spot 4
On 6th June 2013, inCASA will be represented by In-JeT at The Danish Welfare Technology Exhibition and Conference. In-JeT will have an exhibition stand demonstrating the project’s technical solution and results. Specifically, the transferability capabilities of inCASA will be demonstrated using the results from the municipality of Skive who is currently testing the inCASA solution. The demonstration will include the touch screen and some of the devices used by chronic elderly patients in Skive and visitors to the stand will have the opportunity to try the devices themselves. In addition to the exhibition, representatives from Skive municipality will, in cooperation with In-JeT, give a presentation at the conference about their experiences with using the inCASA solution.
The annual conference is aimed at Danish municipal and regional healthcare and social care staff working with telemedicine. The Minister for Economic Affairs and the Interior, Margrethe Vestager, and former Health Minister, Arne Rolighed, are among the many prominent speakers at the conference. The programme can be downloaded here (in Danish).

Hot Spot 1
First pilot in planning: The first inCASA pilot is being planned with the partner Agenzia Territoriale per la casa della Provincia di Torino. ATC Torino is the public body with responsibility for social and public housing in the area of Torino and its surroundings. The Pilot will focus on user behaviour, providing an useful profile to search and determine behaviour that could lead to health problems.

ATC inCASA dissemination video
ATC prepared a video presentation of the inCASA project, in which there are demonstrated the goals, the organization, the target users, the technology used and the involved human resources of the Italian pilot.
The produced video about the ATC pilot is a very useful tool for the dissemination of the project - aiming at facilitating the acceptance of the technological solution.
ATC provided merchandising material (Mug, pen, T-shirt and block-notes with inCASA Logo) for free to elderly people involved in the video production.
The video can be viewed at youtube!
inCASA Pilot Phase
All 5 inCASA pilots have started their Pilot phase successfully and first results are collected and analysed
Even if not all Pilot requirements are identical, a strong common set of requirements has been compiled along with common intervention protocols.
All Pilots focus now not only on data collection but on patient's feedback in order to improve elderly user's experience with the inCASA ICT platform
