The ratio of people in the EU that are aged 65 or above compared to the people aged 15-64 is expected to increase from 28% in 2015 to 50% in 2060. On average, health care consumption increases with age, for example, individuals aged 50+ accounted for almost 70% of all in-patient hospital days in 2013, despite being only about 40% of the population. As a result, the number of people aged above 65 that will need (long-term) health care will increase substantially in the EU over the next few years and this puts direct pressure on their families as well as the health care system.
As more seniors live longer, they face more chronic illnesses. Seniors suffering from chronic health issues, such as diabetes, hypertension, Alzheimer’s, and others, have ongoing difficulties in managing their health due to the complexity of treatment regimens, availability of medical service, and the lack of easy-to-use technology solutions to simplify the process for them. We provide professional and affordable senior healthcare and safety monitoring.
