[Towards a better acceptance of gerontotechnologies]

Abstract

Gerontotechnologies are becoming increasingly important for the elderly, their relatives and the professionals who accompany them. However, this deployment raises a large number of questions, fears and reluctance - or "technoscepticism" - including in the health and medico-social sectors. There are levers that could promote the successful implementation of these technologies.

Keywords: co-construction; coconstruction; elderly person; formation; gerontotechnology; gérontechnologie; medico-social; médico-social; personne âgée; training.
