The primary objective of the workshop was to encourage open discussions and demonstrations of modern telemedicine and remote healthcare solutions and was streamed live, allowing a broader audience to engage with the insightful presentations and discussions. The event brought together representatives from various sectors, including politics, economics, research, academia, and business communities. Special guests from European programs such as TeleNursing, Care@Home, and Dhelida, along with experts in independent living and healthcare entities from Europe, enriched the workshop with their insights. The workshop, including the main presentation and question-and-answer sessions, also featured a brief presentation of proposed solutions and a concurrent exhibition showcasing telemedicine nodes with real-life scenarios.
As we reflect on the success of this workshop, we remain committed to advancing innovation in healthcare technology and contributing to the evolution of remote patient monitoring solutions. We express our gratitude to all participants, collaborators, and attendees for making this event a resounding success.
