      1. IntroductionEhealth solutions are in great need in the community of elderly in general, as patients or home carers, however a design approach that delivers this is illusive. In this research we present the experiences from a set of design processes targeting elderly’s needs of support or home care, based on a co-design approach. The purpose is to present guiding principles for how to work with elderly in a co-design process, to be used as basis for future set up of co-design processes.2. Theory and MethodsCo-design stresses the equal cooperation between end-users, professionals, technical personnel and other key groups. It moves beyond more traditional participative design approach, with user involved in design, to a process were decision making, leadership are shared with end-users.Empirical material consists of 3 case studies, including field notes, recordings of design sessions, and experience of the design process leaders, gathered by design leaders/action researchers. The material is analysed using current co-design theory and best practice on how to structure co-design processes.3. ResultsCase studies included co-design groups: 1) 10-15 persons designing self-care system for heart failure, 2) 5-10 persons designing home carers educations system and 3) 5-10 persons designing fall prevention systems. In the meetings, both professionals and technical experts were present. The design processes consisted of about 5 to 10 meetings during 6 to 12 months. A number of patterns were observed. Central themes include: 1) motivation: to contribute to, improve, complain about, or influence the development of the health care system, 2) to be social: interact with peers and experts, and meet people, 3) technology interests: both due to personal knowledge or lack of knowledge about technology, and to be informed, use technologies 4) being heard and recognized as an individual, with a focus on personal health situation, 5) the possibility to contribute in decision making, and giving back something to the community.4. ...
