The Home Care Suite is an actual home environment within the Helene Fuld Pavilion for Innovative Learning and Simulation in the University of Pennsylvania School of Nursing, serving as a platform to facilitate new ideas and tools for processes and systems that promote health and wellness, disease prevention and management in the home/ community setting across the lifespan. Within this space (that is built as a studio apartment) various technologies are installed (for short or long term) and pilot-tested. The goal is to accelerate design and testing of innovative health solutions in the home recognizing that simulated environments yield more unique responses and drive better explorations about prototypes and solutions.
