In DigiSTRENGTH, the goal is to promote healthy aging by providing structure and space for existential conversations, where a central component is to identify small and large goals that provide strength, joy, and meaning in life.
The involuntary and existential loneliness of individuals living in nursing homes is an identified problem area, both at the local and national levels. This is despite the presence of staff available around the clock.
In DigiSTRENGTH, healthcare personnel are provided with knowledge and tools to perform caregiving work with high quality in close care. Close care refers to care that is proactive, health-promoting, and person-centred, utilising digital solutions and striving for sustainable, high-quality care.
