Abstract :
Along with the global aging problem, coming years special attention has to be given to ICT for Health and ageing well with his focus on Prevention, Health promotion and integrated Health Care. We have developed a semantic medical information system. The system could collect medical information from the Internet, convert knowledge to ontology and answer user questions. In this paper, we proposed two components for healthcare improving and disease prevention. With an awareness component the system could understand user´s condition, and a feedback components motivates users to adapt their behavior from sickness to health.
