The use of electronic health (eHealth) is a potentially promising solution to facilitate caregivers\u2019 help-seeking process.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Objective<\/jats:title>\n The aim of this research was to develop, in partnership with community organizations, health and social service professionals and caregivers, an eHealth tool promoting the earlier identification of needs of older persons and an optimal use of available resources.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Methods<\/jats:title>\n To design the tool, 8 co-design sessions (CoDs) were conducted and 3 advisory committees were created (in 11 regions) in Quebec between May 2017 and May 2018. A variety of methods were used, including the sorting method, the use of personas, eHealth tool analysis, brainstorming, sketching, prototyping, and pretesting.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Results<\/jats:title>\n A total of 74 co-designers (women n=64 and men n=10) were recruited to participate in the CoDs or the advisory committees. This number allowed for the identification of needs to which the tool must respond and for the identification of its requirements (functionalities and content), as well as for the development of the information architecture. Throughout the study, adjustments were made to the planning of CoD, notably because certain steps required more sessions than expected. Among others, this was true for the identification of functionalities.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n This study led to the development of an eHealth tool for caregivers of functionally dependent older persons to help them identify their needs and the resources available to meet them.<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>\n \n International Registered Report Identifier (IRRID)<\/jats:title>\n RR2-10.2196\/11634<\/jats:p>\n <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.2196\/12314","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2019,8,22]],"date-time":"2019-08-22T10:30:11Z","timestamp":1566469811000},"page":"e12314","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":27,"title":["Promoting Identification and Use of Aid Resources by Caregivers of Seniors: Co-Design of an Electronic Health Tool"],"prefix":"10.2196","volume":"2","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3264-5319","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Dominique","family":"Giroux","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-2176-5902","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"M\u00e9lanie","family":"Tremblay","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7998-6498","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Karine","family":"Latulippe","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-8211-7135","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"V\u00e9ronique","family":"Provencher","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-7376-5256","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Val\u00e9rie","family":"Poulin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-9928-7395","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Anik","family":"Giguere","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-0602-0390","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"V\u00e9ronique","family":"Dub\u00e9","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-3187-6465","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Andr\u00e9e","family":"S\u00e9vigny","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2219-9327","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Manon","family":"Guay","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-3310-6402","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Sophie","family":"Ethier","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0399-4525","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Maude","family":"Carignan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1010","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2019,8,22]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref1","unstructured":"GesanoGHeinsFNaldiniAEuropean Commission2009Regional challenges in the perspective of 2010 \n https:\/\/ec.europa.eu\/regional_policy\/en\/information\/publications\/studies\/2009\/regional-challenges-in-the-perspective-of-2020-regional-disparities-and-future-challenges"},{"key":"ref2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.ijmedinf.2012.10.005"},{"key":"ref3","unstructured":"[Ministry of Health and Social Services and Department of Family and Seniors][Government of Quebec]20122019-06-05[Aging and living together, at home, in one's community, in Quebec] \n https:\/\/www.mfa.gouv.qc.ca\/fr\/aines\/vieilliretvivreensemble\/Pages\/Plan-action-2018-2023.aspx"},{"key":"ref4","unstructured":"LavoieJGubermanNMarierPInstitute for Research on Public Policy20142019-06-06[The responsibility for elder care in Quebec: From the public to the private sector.
