4.3. Research Questions and Objectives
- What is the internal logic and theory of change underpinning the implementation of the Local Care Ecosystems model?
- What strengths and limitations emerge from the implementation of the model in relation to its potential for replication and transfer?
- Based on these questions, the study aims to:
- Reconstruct and systematize the internal logic of the Local Care Ecosystems model, identifying its key components, phases, and implementation dynamics.
4.4. Limitations
- Limitations in data availability and digital competencies. The Interoperable Data Platform (Zaintza Datu Gunea) is a relevant initiative within the Local Care Ecosystems that enables service coordination for personalization. However, disaggregated and systematized data on the older adults served, profiles of frailty and dependency, and the distribution of support among services and actors are still not available for integration into the Platform. Another significant limitation concerns the technological capacities of public services and territorial entities within the ecosystem, which restricts the ability to achieve data interoperability. Limited digital skills among users/beneficiaries and certain professional profiles also represent a noteworthy constraint.
- Mismatch between administrative and social timeframes. Experimental projects require extended timeframes to consolidate the organizational, cultural, and relational changes they entail. However, the funding timelines for projects and the associated administrative requirements can limit experimental processes. This mismatch between administrative schedules and the temporality of social transformation processes may affect the impact of innovation initiatives.
- Uneven maturity levels of the ecosystems. Local Care Ecosystems exhibit varying degrees of development, depending on local capacities. While some territories have advanced in consolidating complex coordination and evaluation structures, others remain in early stages of reflection or exploration. This disparity presents significant challenges for both scaling and the generation of collective and transferable learning.
5. Results
5.1. Local Care Ecosystem as Local Solutions
5.2. Local Care Ecosystems: An Integrated Model
- Objective 1. SERVICES. Improve the coordination of social services, health services, community services, and other services to provide person-centered care and ensure continuity of care.
- Objective 2. COMMUNITY. Foster relationships among frail and dependent individuals, experts, professionals, families, and caregivers by consolidating local support networks and proximity networks.
- Objective 3. IMPACT. Promote models for monitoring and evaluating the quality of life and well-being of vulnerable, frail, and dependent individuals, as well as those considered complex cases.
- Governance. Multilevel governance is organized through a Steering Group at the territorial level, composed of health services, health-social services, and social services, with working groups of professionals and experts, as well as panels of users/beneficiaries of social services. The main function of governance is to activate and organize spaces for cooperation between different institutional levels and types of local stakeholders (public, private, and social), as well as spaces for the participation of users, families, and professionals to deploy the Local Care Ecosystem (exploratory, experimental, stabilization, and scaling phases). At the level of each ecosystem, these tasks are carried out by a management unit (see Figure 3).
- Exploration. Exploration within LCE aims to develop local diagnostics that interpret the global trends and challenges of aging and longevity, translating these into local conditions. This involves applying methodologies such as problem mapping, solution mapping, frailty and dependency mapping, local capacity mapping, trend analysis, and participatory future design regarding aging and longevity. These tasks are performed by each ecosystem in collaboration with the Territorial Observatory (BEHAGI/SIA-ADINBERRI).
- Experimentation. Experimentation in LCE involves implementing experimental projects that test new or improved products, processes, methods, and/or services to promote personalized care, service coordination, and community-based care, with the goal of improving the quality of life of frail and dependent individuals living at home. These tasks are coordinated by a Territorial Laboratory (Zaintza Herri Lab), which also supports the monitoring and evaluation of experimental projects developed at the local level.
- Digitalization. Digitalization in LCE focuses on deploying the Interoperable Data Platform (Zaintza Datu Gunea) for social and health data, connecting the management of public service data with local stakeholders (third sector organizations, companies, universities), and with users/beneficiaries of social services. This facilitates personalized care management and system coordination. The outcome of this phase is improved integration of social and health data for local-level services (see Figure 3).
- Evaluation and Scaling up/out. Monitoring within LCE measures the progress in personalized care, service coordination, and the promotion of community-based care. Evaluation assesses the social impact (improvement in the quality of life and well-being of frail and dependent individuals) and includes cost-effectiveness analyses to determine the sustainability of the ecosystems. These monitoring and evaluation processes are conducted in the territorial scaling laboratory (Zaintza Scaling Hub) (see Figure 3).
- Institutional consolidation and coordination figure. Over the five years of development, governance structures (steering committees) have been consolidated, as well as forms of participation for professionals, users/beneficiaries, and families in the deployment of the ecosystems. When municipalities establish a Management Unit, the ecosystems are more successful in energizing projects and ensuring their continuity, facilitating dialogue with the various actors and sectors involved.
- Multidimensional innovation. Most experimental projects have incorporated the three fundamental axes of the LCE model: personalization of care, improvement of service quality and coordination, and strengthening of community care. Some projects, due to their early stage or focus on specific services such as Home Help Service (SAD), have progressed unevenly across these three axes, but the overall trend is positive.
- Transferability and local adaptation. The experiences developed have demonstrated a high degree of transferability. However, it is not possible to directly replicate all projects and their results; rather, an adaptation process is required for each ecosystem, given that each municipality has specific organizational structures, community networks, and institutional cultures.
- Consolidation and sustainability. Half of the Local Care Ecosystems foresee progressive expansion, while the other half remain in exploration and experimentation phases. Sustainability depends not only on financial resources but also on the consolidation of local governance, strengthening of local capacities, and the establishment of appropriate regulatory and organizational frameworks aligned with an ecosystem-based approach to care.
6. Conclusions and Discussion
- Complex cases. One of the observed global problems relates to increased life expectancy, a trend associated with a greater number of years and a higher prevalence of chronic diseases. Local Care Ecosystems promote service coordination processes to provide personalized management for complex cases.
- Service coordination. Fragmentation in long-term care services is a global issue that requires local solutions. LCE foster the coordination of social, health, health-social, and community services, offering higher-quality care strategies by providing a continuum of care.
- Community approach. In response to a marked global trend of changing family structures—one of the pillars of the care model—older adults are increasingly experiencing loneliness. Local Care Ecosystems consolidate community support networks, where older adults can take active roles in their care networks, not just recipients of care, thereby addressing the problem of unwanted loneliness.
- Centrality of autonomy. In contrast to the global trend where aging calls for models that allow older adults to maintain their autonomy—prioritizing staying in their own homes and personalizing support systems—Local Care Ecosystems aim to create technological, organizational, and relational solutions that promote independent living and active participation in the community.
- Personalization. The personalization of care is a global trend that requires promoting solutions tailored to the characteristics, resources, and culture of each individual. LCE design personalized plans and services, integrating technological tools to adjust support to each person and their environment, thereby enhancing personalization.
- Collaborative and Multi-Actor Governance. The creation of social innovation ecosystems depends on collaboration among the public sector, private sector, and civil society, generating multi-actor platforms and social experimentation spaces (“social sandboxes”) that allow for the testing and adaptation of new solutions prior to scaling. This shared governance facilitates sustainability, knowledge transfer, and the continuous adaptation of care models, guided by personalization, coordination, and community-based care.
- Innovation as a Driver of Sustainability and Equity. Demographic pressure and the growing demand for care require sustainable and equitable models, in which social and technological innovation enable the optimization of resources and guarantee the universality and quality of care. Local Care Ecosystems integrate resources, develop public-private-social partnerships, and conduct cost-effectiveness evaluations to foster public innovations that reinforce the long-term viability of Local Care Ecosystems.
