Why the study?
Vietnam has an increasingly aging population facing issues related to elderly individuals living alone and solitary deaths, necessitating solutions to monitor daily lives and mitigate these burdens.
This paper discusses the potential of introducing Korean monitoring technologies to mitigate the risks of solitary deaths among the rapidly aging population in Vietnam.
Korean monitoring tech may aid solitary death prevention in Vietnam's elderly; leaves open feasibility and outcomes in local settings.
The Socialist Republic of Vietnam has become one of the top ten nations with the highest aging rate. The proportion of their aging population increased from 7.2% to 10.95% from 1989 to 2017 and entered into the aging society six years earlier than what had been anticipated in 2011. The main issues in such a society are the problems associated with the elderly living by themselves and their solitary deaths. This study attempts to find a solution which would mitigate the burdens of aging or aged population who are living in a lonely and solitary living condition focusing on the system used for the purpose of managing or monitoring of their daily lives to prevent any undesirable outcomes including solitary deaths. The study also discusses the possibility of introducing the system into Vietnam.
