About
Franziska Bielefeldt is a leading researcher at the intersection of geriatric care, human resources, and service robotics. Her work critically examines how robotic technologies are reshaping the landscape of inpatient elderly care, with a particular focus on the human and organizational dimensions of this transformation. Bielefeldt’s most impactful contribution is her qualitative systematic review on introducing service robotics in inpatient geriatric care from a human resources perspective, which has garnered 13 citations and provides essential insights into nursing home staff attitudes toward robotic devices. Building on this foundation, she developed the SeRoNu (Service Robots in Nursing Homes) model, a holistic framework that maps the complex factors influencing robot adoption in care settings. This model offers both researchers and practitioners a valuable orientation tool for navigating the challenges of an aging society and workforce shortages. Bielefeldt’s work stands out for its human-centered approach, emphasizing that successful technological integration depends as much on understanding staff perspectives and organizational dynamics as on the robots themselves.
