The DREAMING Midterm Workshop in Langeland, Denmark showcased innovative health solutions with real stories from local users. Engaging profiles included Rasmus, a 76-year-old with heart issues, and Lilly, a 69-year-old COPD patient actively participating in telehealth. Insights emphasized the importance of local adaptation, patience, and maintaining connections between providers and patients. The workshop highlighted how combining cold technology with warm human interactions can bridge healthcare gaps. Emphasizing personalized data collection for frail patients, it calls for early scientific research and implementation coordination across EU projects.

Final remarks • Go for early scientific research (even on intermediate results) • Global TeleHealth 2010, Australia (Perth) • Coordinate with the other EU projects • E.g. Whole System Design, UK • Think of post-project implementation early • Region of Southern DK + new municipalities • Ethical boundaries are different across EU • Make anthropological survey • The technology is not the primary barrier • It is the introduction of new things to existing routines • Use personalized data collection for frail patients
