Abstract

This paper investigates the use of workflows to automate the delivery, coordination and monitoring of home-care processes. Workflow models of these processes need to be customized, resilient to change, collaborative and also need to account for the temporal aspects of care (treatment duration, frequency of a medical acts, etc.). To this end, an approach based on ontologies (home-care ontology and BPMN ontology), rules and patient’s profile is proposed for the construction of workflows supporting the coordination and continuity of home-care processes.
