About
Dominic Seefeldt is a researcher at the forefront of human-robot interaction in healthcare, with a particular focus on the ethical and practical integration of robotic systems into nursing care. His most cited work, the "READY?" reflective dialog tool, provides a structured, workshop-based framework that enables care facilities to critically assess the implications of deploying robotics—addressing not just technical feasibility but also the social, ethical, and organizational dimensions of care. By designing a digitally supported question catalog for institutional reflection, Seefeldt empowers caregivers and administrators to make informed, context-sensitive decisions about automation. Though his research is still emerging, with his key paper already garnering 2 citations in its first year, the tool’s immediate uptake signals its relevance in a field grappling with workforce shortages and technological transformation. His work bridges the gap between engineering and care ethics, ensuring that robotic assistance enhances rather than undermines human dignity in nursing. For students and researchers, Seefeldt’s approach exemplifies how participatory design and reflective practice can shape responsible innovation in sensitive care environments.
