Abstract
Technologies for ageing in place may overcome multiple impairments, including declines in cognitive and functional abilities and, consequently, may allow older adults to live safely, independently, autonomously, and comfortably, without being required to leave their own residences. In particular, mobile health (mHealth), due to several factors, has gotten special attention in terms of its potential to support the care provision of older adults in addition to assist professional activities in clinical environments. Therefore, the present article presents a synoptic overview of current state-of-the-art of mHealth applications for ageing in place.
