CEN Workshop on guidelines for introducing tele-medical and pervasive monitoring technologies balancing privacy protection against the need for oversight and care

This Workshop will develop a CEN Workshop Agreement (CWA), which will define guidelines for introducing, implementing and operating sensor monitoring technologies into the private homes of citizens who are in need of care and for the purpose of detecting critical events and trends. The guidelines will describe and exemplify the processes and procedures to support an ethically responsible balance between, on the one hand, respect for the autonomy and privacy of the citizens in need of care and, on the other, the obligation to provide quality care of typically frail citizens. The guidelines will not include issues of security or technical requirements for availability of information to relevant parties. The guidelines will not include management of or procedures for handling monitoring data. The primary target groups of the workshop are care organizations (public or private) that are responsible for delivering social care and health care to citizens
