Hyvinvointiosaamista Suomesta koko maailmalle! : edelläkävijänä Keski-Suomen ihmislähtöisen hyvinvoinnin osaamiskeskittymä
2018
Keski-Suomi on profiloitunut ihmislähtöisen hyvinvointiosaamisen monialaisena kehittäjänä. Kehittyvän lääketieteen ja teknologian avulla onnistutaan voittamaan yhä uusia sairauksia, samalla kuitenkin jatkuvasti kasvattaen sairaanhoidon kokonaiskustannuksia. Näkökulman vaihtaminen syrjäytymisen ehkäisystä ja sairauksien hoidosta kustannustehokkaampaan ja inhimillisesti arvokkaaseen hyvinvoinnin ja toimintakyvyn edistämiseen on mahdollista, kun yhdistämme monipuolisen tiedon ihmisen käyttäytymisestä, tarpeista ja hyvinvoinnin ylläpidosta elämänkaaren eri vaiheissa nopeasti kehittyvään tietoteknologiaan ja tiedon analysointiin. Tässä kansallisessa kehitystyössä haluamme olla vahvasti mukana. V…
