Ambient Intelligence (AmI) can be of great support for the care of people with cognitive impairment. This people require effective treatment plans with clear goals, including pharmacological treatment, Activities of Daily Living (ADL) and assessment tests, all of them according to the recommendations specified in Clinical Practice Guidelines (CPGs) and centred on the patient. Moreover, these plans need to be adapted in a sensitive and responsive way to both the natural disease evolution and unexpected circumstances. This work presents an approach to automatically generate (from formal CPGs) and adaptively execute daily living care plans in the frame of a planning-based distributed architecture that allows for its application on AmI environments. This approach is based on temporal hierarchical planning and scheduling techniques, which allow for the context-awareness of the whole process.
