摘要
This paper looks at some case studies from the TATE [Through Assistive Technology to Employment] Project. Funded through the second round of the Equal Community Programme (ESF) the TATE Project has looked at how assistive technology and telecare can be implemented to enhance the quality of life for adults with learning disabilities. Using a series of case studies, the paper illustrates some of the advantages of both innovative and traditional assistive technology and telecare to the service user, formal and family carers.
