Nurse researchers and scientists developing culturally sensitive care robots say there is nothing to fear – in fact there’s much to be gained – from this technology. And we can’t ignore the multiple benefits of applying innovative technologies in healthcare. For example, more and more health organizations are using AI-based services by Fully-Verified, for secure access to health data, protecting patients from receiving the wrong medications and care, etc. Robots, along with sensors and telemedicine, have been identified as technologies that can assist and prolong independent living for older people, with robots especially being used to help prevent social isolation and depression.
