Over the past years, demographic changes and ageing populations have led to changes in policy paradigms, including privatization of health sectors, strengthening of home support and increasing use of information and communication technologies. The current scenario points to an increase in the use of educational platforms directed at the population\u2019s health education. The Internet is considered a privileged means of information and communication used to interact with the population, providing access to information and a way to guarantee the reliability of that information. Populations are strongly encouraged to engage and be accountable for the health care process.<\/p>\n

Intent-Care is aligned with EIP and AHA (European Innovation Partnership on Active and Healthy Ageing), C2 Action Plan. A quasi-experimental study has already been developed in Portugal. The project will comprise 3 stages: Diagnostic assessment (identifying and prioritizing needs); Design of an interactive tool (design and development of the interactive tool); Implementation and assessment of the interactive tool (assess the impact\/contribution of the interactive tool on knowledge and self-efficacy of family caregivers in the process of caring for dependent patients).<\/p>\n

The project \u2018Interactive educational technologies: contribution to the development of knowledge and skills of family caregivers\u2019 aims to develop and validate an interactive tool that allows specific information to be provided to family caregivers of dependent people complementary to their orientation and promoting patient\u2019s autonomy. An interactive, reliable and user-friendly website has been developed. The main innovative element is the interactive design of the platform allowing a quick response to the user\u2019s needs, aiding in the decision-making process and the selection of the most relevant information. The content was developed focusing on the basic needs of daily life, allowing to overcome the difficulties regardless of the clinical diagnosis of the clients. This platform is supported by videos demonstrating procedures and audio documents. Some of the videos include family caregivers currently providing care to dependent persons.<\/p>\n

Graphic design of the tool was supported by ESEP communication office.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\nOnce the results of this study have been validated in Portugal, the educational platform is ready to be translated and adopted by other European countries. Through the reliable information provided by this platform, adapted to the needs of family caregivers, this technological tool will be an important facilitating resource for improving the care provided to dependent people. The current socio-professional context advocates the adoption of multiple resources and health policies that promote the training of family caregivers, allied to the sustainability of the national health service. This research suggests new educational strategies aimed at family caregivers, using information and communication technologies. We believe we have contributed to the development and integration of interactive educational technologies into clinical settings, providing health professionals with a complementary technological resource in the preparation of family caregivers, thus contributing to the improvement of health quality. This PhD work focuses on the design and evaluation of an interactive educational platform, which aims to support family caregivers of dependent people. The results revealed a significant statistical improvement in the knowledge of family using educational technology. Thus, the results of the experimental group allowed us to show a gain in knowledge in all the assessed domains. In the control group, the knowledge did not vary in the two assessment moments. The difference in the results obtained in the experimental group allows us to state that the use of educational technology contributes to increasing the knowledge of family caregivers in the field of self-care domains under study. Knowledge has proved to be positively related to the level of education before and after the intervention.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
