As part of the meetings of stakeholders involved in supporting the elderly, Mathieu MICHEL, State Secretary for Digitalisation, and Raphael SZUMA, President of the CPAS of Waterloo, together with Chantal BERTOUILLE, President of Séniors MR, and Pia JANSSENS met with the company inMERSIV Technologies.
The SAM project (autonomous multisensory system) is an interactive technology designed for the health sector as well as care homes. It aims to improve patients' well-being through real-time, interactive environments, while offering data management and personalisation tailored to each person's medical profile. This would represent a non-medicinal solution to improve well-being.
Positive effects are observed among individuals, supervisory staff and families. SAM operates within a closed network and has a place at the heart of institutions, whether medical or care facilities.
Combined with other approaches to well-being for individuals, particularly the elderly, this cutting-edge technology would have its place in the necessary paradigm shifts in care homes and reception centres. The Humanitude, Tubbe and Montessori models, together with differentiated management, will enable the necessary evolution of our institutional landscape.
The well-being of the young and the not-so-young is the foundation of a balanced society.
