| description | Dementia refers to a syndrome that causes a decline in cognitive functions such as thinking,
memory, and reasoning abilities which affects a person's daily life. There are over 55 million
people in the world suffering from dementia in 2020 and it is estimated to be almost doubled
every 20 years with an estimated number of 139 million people in 2050.
Currently, there is no available cure for dementia, however, there are treatments available.
One example of such treatments includes Person-centred care which is to give personalized
care to the patient through getting to know the patient through interpersonal interaction and
focusing on their specific needs. Research has shown that technology has been hardly used to
assist healthcare professionals in taking care of dementia patients. However, the usage of
technological innovations can aid dementia patients to have better care and cope better as
well as easing the burden of the healthcare professionals who are looking after them.
An application for Person-Centred Care of Dementia Patients (PEAR) was created to provide
a centralized platform for healthcare professionals to provide more efficient treatment and
care to the patient.
Hence, the objective of this project is to maintain and improve the PEAR backend system.
This includes continuing the migration of the PEAR system from ASP.NET MVC5 to
ASP.NET CORE. The PEAR backend system follows the Repository Service Pattern and
uses various technologies such as Cloudinary, Microsoft SQL Database, Firebase Cloud
Messaging, etc. |
