Abstract
Technology in various forms is being developed and applied to provide new solutions to the increasing prevalence of long-term health conditions. This article describes the potential of telehealth and telecare applications in response to increased demands for health and social care. The impact of technology on provision of person-centred treatment and self-management is described using the emergent results from the SMART2 project. SMART2 is a multi-disciplinary collaboration which spans academia, health providers and people with long-term conditions.Keywords
