Culture in Homecare

Project title

Kultur i Nära vård

Description of initiative

The purpose of the project Culture in Homecare is to investigate whether digital cultural access is important for well-being and health of the people who receive homecare.
In a collaborative approach between healthcare, academia and culture, digital cultural experiences (opera performances from The Metropolitan Opera) are made available to patients and relatives in home healthcare. The project also investigates how to inspire cultural content producers to include into their target groups the sick, elderly and relatives and to be able to meet a variety of personal interests in healthcare.
