To enable elderly people to live independently in their homes, the government aims to de-institutionalize elderly care services by upscaling home care services and care housing and downscaling long-term stays at nursing homes. Increasing use of assistive technologies will play a significant role in the ongoing transformation of care services, however our empirical data shows how difficult appropriation and use of technology are for elderly end-users. In this paper, we suggest a comprehensive elderly care trajectory model that includes the collaborative work of self-care, formal care, informal care and technology. We build our trajectory on empirical studies of elderly people using assistive technology in a care housing and in nursing homes, in addition to Corbin and Strauss’ classic work. Our proposal of an elderly care trajectory fits with the municipal care staircase, but challenges its minimalist service level focus, as well as its late and limited introduction of technology.

技术支持的老年人护理工作的轨迹

为了使老年人能够独立生活在住房中，政府旨在通过扩大家庭护理服务和护理住房的规模以及减少长期在疗养院中的住宿规模来使老年人护理服务制度化。越来越多地使用辅助技术将在正在进行的护理服务转型中扮演重要角色，但是我们的经验数据表明，对老年最终用户而言，使用和使用技术有多么困难。在本文中，我们提出了一个综合的老年人护理轨迹模型，其中包括自我护理，正式护理，非正式护理和技术的协同工作。除了Corbin和Strauss的经典著作之外，我们的轨迹还基于在护理院和疗养院中使用辅助技术对老年人进行的经验研究。
