Telesalud Caldas will participate in a telepsychology project for older adults in France

Telehealth from the University of Caldas will collaborate with French organizations to model a telepsychology platform for older adults.

Last year, Maif, a research foundation of French origin, presented a call focused on the prevention of accidents in everyday life, which is the third cause of death in France. In this way, organizations and institutions began to develop research projects to develop a prevention service.

ReSanté-Vous, a social enterprise that focuses on providing accompanying services to older adults such as non-pharmacological therapy, rehabilitation and prevention. With the aim of developing a project to participate in the MAIF call, ReSanté-Vous formed an alliance with Telesalud from the University of Caldas.

After visits from Telehealth Caldas to Europe and the visit of the European observation mission to Colombia, a year ago it was announced that the Telehealth model would be replicated in France.

In addition to Telesalud Caldas, which specializes in research and health and telemedicine, ReSanté-Vous partnered with a group of consultants specializing in occupational health. This working group will develop a collaborative support platform for caregivers, professionals and family members of older adults called "Capaidants".

Capaidants will be a resource platform with an intuitive app that will present questions and answers to caregivers in order to offer immediate practical support. In this way, another purpose is to strengthen self-care and psychological support actions, as well as the prevention of home accidents.

The Maif Foundation provided support for this project for the next three years, which will begin in September and will undergo a co-construction process with the participation of users to find out its limitations.

Esteban Granada Aguirre, director of Telesalud Caldas, explained that it is important to sign this type of agreement since it allows us to continue saving lives through technology through educational techniques, support and teleconsultations in mental health. In addition, he celebrated the importance of exporting this type of services to other countries, especially in other continents.
