Description
The book investigates digitalisation in care for older people by giving insight into service users’ and professionals’ opportunities to digital agency in the context of European welfare states.
"Care for older people is stepping into a brave new digital world and Digital Transformations is among the very first books to address this ongoing metamorphosis. It does this head on, providing a sharp-eyed critical analysis of the emergence of digicare."
