Thaïs Caprioli - The benefits and drawbacks of accessing post-diagnostic support remotely

Thaïs Caprioli narrates her blog written for Dementia Researcher.

Within the last two decades, the use of information communication technology (ICT) to deliver health and social care services has received considerable attention. The possible role of ICT to increase the number of people accessing care, whilst aligning with a cost-saving agenda, forms an enticing solution to an underfunded health and social care sector which is faced with an ever-increasing demand. The adoption of ICT in practice has been implemented at quite a leisurely pace, that is, until the COVID-19 pandemic caused a widespread shift from accessing post-diagnostic support in-person, to remotely. Is this a good thing? Thaïs discusses the changing role of support in this special blog for our Tech & Dementia week.
