The project runs for 12 months and is organised into five work packages.
Analysis of the care setting and clinical-operational diagnosis
Gain an in-depth understanding of the facility: record systems, workflow and caregivers' needs.
- T1.1Project kick-off: team set-up, ethics approval and agreement with the facility.M1–M2
- T1.2Inventory of care record and monitoring systems.M2–M3
- T1.3Diagnostic interviews with caregivers and facility management.M2–M3
- T1.4Diagnostic report and definition of functional and clinical requirements.M4
Design and development of the clinical decision support system
Build the AI agent with its three modules and validate it with the research team.
- T2.1Joint specification of clinical and functional requirements.M3–M4
- T2.2Iterative development of the agent: data integration (M1), AI processing (M2) and interface (M3).M4–M8
- T2.3Functional and clinical validation of the system.M7–M8
- T2.4Final version of the system ready for real-world evaluation.M8
Integration into the care setting and pilot
Install the system in the facility, train staff and support its real use.
- T3.1Installation and configuration of the system in the facility.M8–M9
- T3.2Presentation and training sessions for staff.M8–M9
- T3.3Monitored real-world use and collection of feedback.M9–M10
- T3.4Technical adjustments and optimisation based on clinical use.M9–M10
Clinical-operational impact evaluation
Measure the effect of the agent on staff and on the quality of care.
- T4.1Baseline evaluation before the intervention: PSS-14, MBI-HSS and focus groups.M2–M3
- T4.2Usability and acceptability evaluation: SUS and interviews.M9–M12
- T4.3Integrated quantitative and qualitative impact analysis.M9–M12
- T4.4Drafting of the Good Practice Guide for clinical care.M11–M12
Scientific dissemination and transfer to the care sector
Share the results with the scientific community, professionals and society.
- T5.1Scientific publications and conference papers.M9–M12
- T5.2Dissemination and transfer to professionals: website, social media and results event.M6–M12
- T5.3Progress (M6) and final (M12) reports.M1–M12
