ABSTRACT This paper describes the research plans in the SuperAssist project, introducing personal assistants in the care of diabetes patients, assisting the patients themselves, the medical specialists looking after the patients' healthcare, and the technical specialists responsible for maintaining the health of the devices involved. The paper discusses the issues of trust and cooperation and the proposed scenario-based approach to design a future of agent-based healthcare to increase the self-help abilities of individual patients.
