A guiding principle of the Council on Health Care Technology is a special focus on medical technology assessment measures that coincide with patient well-being, quality of health care, and quality of life.

Of particular concern is care of the elderly, which constitutes a special and vulnerable patient population.

This comprehensive book discusses the appropriate use of technology to minimize risks posed to the elderly patient in the delivery of health care services.
