Building on a living lab in dementia care: A transnational multiple case study Research Session 3: Case studies in Living Lab application domains Diana Roeg (PhD), Liselore Snaphaan (PhD), and Inge Bongers (Prof. Dr.), Mental Health Care Institute GGzE, the Netherlands The 4 th ENoLL Living Lab Summer School 27 th -30 August 2013 Manchester School of Arts

2. Overview 1.Problems in dementia care 2.Innovate dementia project 3.Research on how to build LL for dementia 4.Results and discussion

3. Problems in dementia care Global aging 35.6 million people worldwide living with dementia and this number is expected to double by 2030 and more than triple by 2050 Affects cognitive functioning, emotional control, social behaviour & independent living Consequences: financial, quality of care, burden family Needed: smart solutions

4. Innovate Dementia project Objectives -Initiating stakeholder dialogue & transnational knowledge platform -Providing state of the art care models -Integrated testing of innovative dementia care solutions by Living Labs Knowledge and health care institutes of 4 countries involved: - Krefeld, Germany -Liverpool, UK -Geel, Belgium -Eindhoven, The Netherlands European funding: Interreg Intelligent lightning Nutrition/exercise Home environment Care models Intelligent lightning Nutrition/exercise Home environment Care models

5. Research on how to build a LL for dementia (1) Systematically followed the Living Labs Qualitative data collection - project reports & documents - focus group meeting - individual conversations - participative observations during international meetings Central: activities needed, facilitators & barriers Analysis: data were grouped on themes, and compared between the regions

6. Research on how to build a LL for dementia (2) Project documents Baseline report Status quo reports (nov 2012) -Start protocol, including minimal set of requirements (key principles) (jan 2013) Focus group meeting and conversations during site visit Eindhoven (January 2013) Participative observation and converstations at transnational meeting and site visit Liverpool (March 2013)

7. Results (1) Definition Living Lab Innovate Dementia a dynamic structure, using pragmatic and real life methodology to explore, evaluate and validate innovations, in an open and collaborative environment, which is user-driven and aimed at improving care for people living with dementia. Minimal set of requirements 1. Dynamic structure 7. Sustainable/ Continuity 2. Pragmatic, real life methodology 8. The needs and autonomy 3. Development and testing of innovations 9. Open infrastructure 4. User driven 10. Networking 5. Improving care 11. Economic activity 6. Build up of the living lab architecture

8. Results (2) Activities: First user involvement and selection of innovations Different innovations selected (prototypes from design researchers, existing technologies, and health care models developed by health care partners) Different methods for user involvement (evaluations at home, need assessments, interviews, regional stakeholder meetings)

9. Results (3)

10. Discussion/conclusion The same and still different Why? Leading partners, basic structure International cooperation: learn from each other, increasing similarities and quality

11. Future plans Goal of the project is to contribute to long lasting open innovation in this sector Expertise on how living labs can be applied in health care Provide solutions for the current and upcoming problems in the dementia care http://www.innovatedementia.eu/en
