Sammanfattning

The purpose of the study was to explore what managers and health care professionals perceive as important for safe and secure use of telecare for older adults in community health- and care services. The study incorporates an explorative, qualitative design. Four focus groups were conducted with a total of 20 participants: ten managers from eight municipalities, and ten health care professionals from two municipalities. Data were analysed using qualitative content analysis. The results show that the participants considered it as important that health care professionals and service users receive essential information and training related to the technology in use. Furthermore, it was deemed vital that both the technology and its use are closely followed up, and that the devices being offered meet the service users’ individual needs. The participants also referred to the significance of increased attention to early initiatives and use of telecare in a preventative perspective.
