摘要
The present article focuses on offers of personal-virtual combined case managementPersonal-virtual combined case management. A study funded by the Federal Ministry of Education and Research (BMBF) initially investigated the effects on the independence (self-determination) of older people with multiple illnesses, who live alone and asked about the conditions of acceptance for case management from the perspective of users (Schmidt et al., Scand J Caring Sci, 2019). A subsequent BMBF-funded study built upon these findings, expanding the scope to encompass case management structures. The study centered on the subjective experiences of practice transfer from the perspective of professional case management actors (Schmidt in Ich verzichte lieber auf meinen Kühlschrank als auf mein iPad. medhochzwei Verlag, Heidelberg, S. 181–193, 2023).
