Description
Ida Bagus Kresnasandi and Brian B. Johnson set out a 2025 plan for remote health care for older people in Indonesia. Their aim is better care for Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia across a vast island nation. Many villages have no fast mobile signal, and the country counts many tongues and local ways. Care also faces high costs and a shortage of nurses.
The plan starts with satellite internet from Starlink to link far places to clinics and doctors. Linked home devices could then track health and send updates from towns and remote villages alike. A chat app that needs no phone plan is being tested to link patients with care staff. A pilot study in Bali would test the plan in a rural village and on a nearby island. The authors see this as a way to cut gaps in care.
