Project: Digital Intelligent Assistant for Nursing Applications

Acronym DIANA (Reference Number: aal-2019-6-150-CP)
Duration 01/02/2020 - 01/02/2023
Project Topic The project DIANA aims to optimise the nursing process in an innovative way by relieving nursing staff of routine tasks which could be managed by a digital assistant powered by Artificial Intelligence. A smart 3D sensor and the Milestone platform are combined to provide an easy-to-use application with many functions: monitoring safety of patients 24/7 (e.g. unusual behaviour, falls), support activities of daily living (toileting, bathing etc.) and observe health trends of patients (e.g. water intake, changed behavioural patterns). End-users of DIANA are adults of 65 years and older, receiving professional care of formal caregivers in an institutionalized care setting and are diagnosed with a form of cognitive impairment. Residents and caregivers will share valuable experiences throughout the project, which will influence the development of the system in a continuous feedback loop. For the end-users’ involvement submitting an ethics proposal and ensuring the informed consent is a major part of the project.
