Abstract:
Faced with the ageing of the French population, it is essential to envisage new technologies to improve the living conditions of elderly people and enable them to communicate more effectively. A study sought to understand the views of senior citizens and the caregivers who look after them regarding these new tools, their appropriation, the support required and their uses. This analysis highlights areas to reflect upon and improve in terms of the services which need to be provided to overcome the reticence of certain users.
