The high level of interoperability and standards of use of the InnovCare platform make the difference, allowing a high flexibility and adaptability to other complementary solutions. This open approach enables a personalized service composition and a central health-focused information point, accessible for different user groups. Hence, the aforementioned features of the solution can be summarized in the following advantages: • Common open platform, enabling the dynamic composition of packages of services based on interoperability and standards, taking into consideration the growing need for self-management, integrated care and support by informal caregivers. The current InnovCare solution structure includes:  Wearable sensors to monitor activity/rest/falls, vital signs and alarms  Smartphone application to monitor neurological state  Collaborative tool, including video-conferencing • Decision Making System: open IoT input/output hub, which provides an integration middleware for sensors and devices into the InnovCare platform. The data gathered via this hub enables algorithms and rule-based services, aimed at enriching the business layer of the common open platform for providing personalized recommendations of services and user interfaces."

The usage and deployment of ICTs should seek to create benefits in all aspects of our daily life. ICT applications are potentially important in government operations and services, health care and health information, education and training, employment, job creation, business, agriculture, transport, protection of environment and management of natural resources, disaster prevention, and culture, and to promote eradication of poverty and other agreed development goals. ICTs should also contribute to sustainable production and consumption patterns and reduce traditional barriers, providing an opportunity for all to access local and global markets in a more equitable manner. Applications should be user-friendly, accessible to all, affordable, adapted to local needs in languages and cultures, and support sustainable development. To this effect, local authorities should play a major role in the provision of ICT services for the benefit of their populations.
