[Telecare, one care vision].

Information and communication techniques represent a double challenge for nursery. This techniques provide the chance to improve the patient-sanitary professional relationship, promoting situations where the patient plays an active part in its own therapeutic process, and on the other hand arise the need to be ready for this technologic setting. The incorporation of the information and communication techniques will represent a new approach to the therapeutic relationship, that has to be used to consolidate the role of the nursery in front of the patient. Telecare offers services regarding health promotion, prevention and illness recovery based on information and communication techniques.
