Mobile home and care team for elderly deaf people - unique project in Sweden

The care team consists of deaf assistant nurses who visit elderly deaf people in their homes. The project aims to improve the health of a target group who often avoid applying for home and care interventions due to communication challenges and the risk of misunderstanding. Åsa Gustavsson, project manager at Jönköpings Läns och Dövas Teckenspråkigas förbund, shares experiences from both the project and the work with academia. Researchers Yashar Mahmud and Sofi Fristedt from Jönköping Academy will share preliminary research results.
