Abstract:
Remote assistance first appeared in the 1970s and the equipment has since evolved. Today, 20% of falls in elderly people aged 80 or over are detected by a remote assistance call. There are obstacles to the development of this system, notably the stigmatisation of old age and frailty. There is also the coexistence of the fear of disturbing neighbours, a feeling of an invasion of freedom and a certain fatality. Above all, remote assistance must remain an individual choice.
