Tentative prioritization of the different proposals Very high priority proposals (*****) The following proposals have been identified, due to the factors indicated above, as top priority ones.

Independent living and age-friendly environments proposals - Guidance on appropriate user interface adaptations for older people - Standardization of age-friendly transport (including accessibility). Low priority proposals (**) The following proposals have been identified, due to the factors indicated above, as low priority ones. The relevant European Standardization Organizations (or, if relevant, International Standardization Organizations), should be asked to launch them between July and December 2018. e-Health proposals - Quality criteria for the development of health and wellness apps (ongoing proposal within CEN/TC 251, still not developed). Care and healthcare proposals - Standardization of the quality of long-term care and social services for older people. - Standardization of social care support and independent living (activity, diet, falls, safety). - Standardization of education of AHA providers on good UX design, including accessibility aspects. - Standardization of active (robotic) orthoses and prostheses, including wearable robots such as exoskeletons - Standardization of fall prevention devices. - Standardization of service robots for independent living Independent living and age-friendly environments proposals - Standardization on information and cognitive impairment Very low priority proposals (*) The following proposals have been identified, due to the factors indicated above, as low priority ones. The relevant European Standardization Organizations (or, if relevant, International Standardization Organizations), should be asked to launch them launched in 2019. e-Health proposals No eHealth proposals have been identified within this prioritization category. Care and healthcare proposals No care and healthcare proposals have been identified within this prioritization category. Independent living and age-friendly environments proposals - Standardization of age-friendly built environments. - Accessibility of products and services under a Design for All approach. - Standardization of age-friendly smart cities (including accessibility)

I would be fine to include the W3C Consortium as International Standarization Organization, as well.Maybe should be more appropiate to collaborate with existent workgroups in interoperability standards such as "Web of Things" instead of develop a brand new standardis it possible to promote WHO methodology related to age-friendly cities and communities as a standard in the EU? otherwise, there will be plenty various "age-friendly" standards that will not fit to each other...should not this be moved to "Independent living and age-friendly environments proposals"?can we literally indicate housing and public spaces?cities and communities?I believe environmental quality of spaces occupied by elderly people is of the utmost importance! It has not only a huge impact on their quality of life but also very big implications in terms of costs for the health care system. We can't forget how sensitive and frail many of us can be at this age and, thus, particular attention must be put on this issue!1. The list of very high priority proposals feels relatively long, whilst the list of high priority proposals is relatively short. 2. We would suggest to focus on just a few proposals that are very high priorityWe agree that this should be a very high priority.We agree that this should be a very high priority.We agree that this should be a very high priority.We would like to suggest another topic for high priority - Accessibility of products and services under a Design for All approach. We need to be aligned with the BS 8878 Web accessibility Code of Practice.We fully endorse this proposal as we have a Scottish strategic priority focussed on medicines reconciliation.We would like to suggest a new high priority proposal that focusses on merging or extending standards to support integrated health and social care. We have the impression that eHealth standards are focussed on the health domain, which is no surprise. However, in relation to the integrated care ambitions of Scotland, this leaves a gap when dealing with other types of datasets and different semantics related to social care and other services. The above could be achieved by merging or extending other standards to encompass 'integrated health and social care'. These are very relevant in the context of person centred care and the direction that we are taking in Scotland: a. Cognitive accessibility of ICT products and services. b. Accessibility and integration of mobile applications, including those that support independent living.We are not convinced that this needs any standardisation. It is a question of making a good level of network connectivity available in remote and rural areas. The rest will then fall into place.We believe this should be a high priority, not medium. We would recommend to elevate this to at least medium priority. Quality matters to get adoption and it would be good to have an off-the-shelf reference.We would suggest raising the profile of this proposal to at least medium. We should be more consistent with this support and not have citizens being disadvantaged by where they live.We would suggest to elevate this to a medium, or even high, priority given that we generally place a higher value on usability. I agree with the previous comment.I asume it will be considered to coordinate or use current standards on health data. (HL7, SNOMED, LOINC)Standarization on Social History (Electronic Social Record) needed. Information on social services, rehabilitation carried out by the third sector, social needs and support, ... Totally agree with previous comments. Social care in the scope of integrated care is needed.I also agree...maybe some can be set as lower priority to focus in a achievable subset.I think SNOMED and HL7 may also be contacted as most proposals are around semantic interoperabilityI agree alsoAbsolutely support this topic (as stated previously). The more standardised care interventions the easier to adopt in a certain case of useFrailty and dependency scales and assessment should be par of the standardizationBest practices gathering should be done as long as attached to outcome evaluation An entire smart ecosystem What about smart nets ? - so many elderly are left far from the cities! What about smart nets ? - so many elderly are left far from the cities! Expansions to cover social care records necessary, as mentioned in other comments.Results of OpenMedicine project should be utilized.In agreement with former comments. Absolute necessity and not yet a priority in many EU MS.It would be more appropriate to propose standardization of fall prevention practices, rather than services.Both assessment of the different dimensions of frailty and the next proposal on interventions for different frailty risk categories would be more appropriately placed at least as 'High' (if not very high) priorities, since frailty is a comprehensive measure of a person's health and well-being status. Completely agree with D. Henderson's comment. As it has been brought up in several points, the social care aspects need to be reflected on all levels - not just the healthcare perspectiveThe formulation of this proposal is unclear. Does it mean standardization of information describing cognitive impairment or standardization of information to be provided e.g. to persons with cognitive impairment? Either way, it should be of higher priority.There is a lot to be learned and taken up from Design for All- principles and experiences, therefore it should be raised to a considerably higher priority status.I believe that an environment incorporating in its design principles the knowledge on human physiology and perception and especially the physiology and perception of people across the lifespan, where multi-morbidities such as frailty and Alzheimer’s might occur, is beneficial for all other aspects of care and everyday life and acts as their multiplier. The transfer of knowledge and upscaling for frailty and fall-prevention through design technologies as well as the integration of healthcare facilities via holistic approaches is of great importance.Inclusion of new design paradigms for environments of the care and treatment of people and for sustaining healthy societies
