SALSA assistive technology for independence and safety in shared apartments

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This observational project installs SALSA technologies—smart lighting, environmental sensors, and wearable monitoring devices—in apartments occupied by adults with mental, social, and/or motor disabilities in Milan. A cohort of 55 residents will be followed and data on daily functioning, autonomy, safety events, and caregiver workload will be collected from sensors, wearables, caregiver logs, and periodic assessments. No experimental medical treatments are applied; the focus is on how these technologies operate in real shared-living environments and their practical effects. The project is run by Fondazione Don Carlo Gnocchi ONLUS in collaboration with Cascina Biblioteca Società Cooperativa Sociale and Informatici Senza Frontiere APS.
