IX International Congress on Dependence and Quality of Life "Social and health integration: a reality check".

  Date:
06/11/2023 to 07/11/2023
 Type: Congress
 Line of Knowledge: Active aging and friendliness
 Location: Barcelona / Online

This event focuses on the need to work, following the experience of the COVID, on the urgent development of real socio-health services in the framework of long-term care, demanding them in both institutional and home settings; as well as on the need to have sufficient and appropriate professionals from the social and health sectors, working as a team, in an integrated manner, to tackle, with guarantees and quality, the comorbidity that affects the elderly and that has repercussions on their health and on the rest of their lives.

With this philosophy, the main themes of the congress are: (i) Experiences of integrated care in Europe, (ii) The experience of the elderly person in the home, (iii) Frailty and vulnerability in the elderly: a multidisciplinary vision and (iv) The promotion of integrated management through financing and payment systems.

Among the participants in this congress, our colleague Elisa Pozo, head of architectural design at Matia, will be one of the speakers at a round table on the creation of communities for healthy and satisfactory ageing.
