Notes

Abstract: Even with the adoption of modern technology within the medical system, the spread of
deadly pathogens remains a silent, yet deadly killer. Indeed, e-health, and in particular
m-health is at the forefront of the computing portion of modern medical care. It
follows the ubiquity of mobile computing devices that has become synonymous
with modern life. Although the focus of m-health is patient based, this paper
attempts to provide a focus on the healthcare service provider in an attempt to
reduce the fatalities due to pathogen transmissions in care facilities. This paper
proposes, and describes the creation and evaluation of an AI based context-aware
mobile learning system designed to provide real-time training and support for
medical cleaning staff. This learning system aims to bridge the gap between
context-aware learning systems and m-health. As such, the system provides context
information to the learner about the various threats and best ways to deal with
possible pathogens in a long-term care scenario. The evaluation, field tested within
the adult long-term care system demonstrates the benefit and validity of the
system in both training and ongoing usage within the medical system.
