A primer on the human factors issues that can influence how older adults interact with telehealth systems, \u003cstrong\u003eDesigning Telehealth for an Aging Population: A Human Factors Perspective\u003c\/strong\u003e examines the new ways patients and healthcare providers communicate to achieve the same or better outcomes than with traditional face-to-face healthcare.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe authors examine older adult capabilities and provide standards and guidelines for telehealth design, enlivened by clinical examples and tutorials on human factors methodologies. They take a systematic look at how the use of human factors principles can facilitate the successful development, deployment, and maintenance of telehealth technology to better serve the aging population. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe authors have carefully stayed away from academic writing, distilling their experience in the form of basic observations and principles drawn from their work. They include suggested readings at the end of each chapter that supply the research underpinning their recommendations. The first reference to cover older adult users in an area that will only get bigger, this book sets itself apart by providing focused coverage of the human factors issues specific to aging populations and practical advice on how to accommodate them.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Neil Charness\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1439825297\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781439825297\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e CRC Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/11\/2011\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 112\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.45lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.00h x 6.00w x 0.40d","brand":"Neil Charness","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48088268603647,"sku":"9781439825297","price":105.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_7f389cc6-613d-4248-bc38-66081a1626bd.jpg?v=1769103972","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/designing-telehealth-for-an-aging-neil-charness-9781439825297","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
