Support mainly comprised older adults’ own digital competences, which were distributed with their social network. The most reported enabler was the support provided for older adults in learning and use of eHealth.

The most regularly reported barriers related to older adults’ learning to use and use of eHealth were health-related difficulties, such as cognitive impairment or impaired hearing. A total of 17 articles included participants from rural and remote areas. Results: In total, 31 empirical studies published between 20 were included in this review. In addition, we identified the various meanings attached to eHealth technologies for older adults living in rural and remote areas. The studies by means of qualitative thematic analysis to identify the barriers, enablers, and support practices involved in the domestication process were examined. Methods: A systematic search was conducted in January 2020 using 4 academic databases. Objective: The purpose of this systematic literature review is to appraise, synthesize, and summarize the literature on older adults’ (aged ≥60 years) eHealth learning and use in real home settings, particularly in rural and remote areas, with a focus on the social and cultural context. However, there is a need to better understand older adults’ needs for eHealth services, and thus, these health solutions require further exploration. Different eHealth technologies are one way to achieve this aim.
