Who dares? What are the healthcare professions of the future?

Somaya Ben Allouch, lecturer in the Digital Life research group, asked this question (#challengeaccepted), among others, to Elie Rusthoven, who is project manager at care institution Cordaan.

To the question 'Which new care professions do you think will come?' she asked to indicate for each profession:

Three professions that will be created according to Elie Rusthoven are:

1) Profession: App-theker

Why? There are too many apps, with different advantages and disadvantages. However, which app is right for you?

What is this person going to do? Prescribe apps for clients.

2) Profession: (Care) Robot Mechanic

Why? In some time, robots will become an indispensable part of healthcare. These will be regularly recorded on the tape.

3) Profession: Data Healer

Why? More and more data about our health is becoming available. The only question is, 'How do I get the most health benefit from this data?'

What is this person going to do? Advise on how best to collect your data, which algorithms you can best choose for the best result. And also answer questions about what the data exactly means.

Bring on those professions!
