Needs and challenges of care robots in nursing care setting: A literature review

摘要

This study aims to identify needs and challenges of care robot in nursing care setting through an extensive search of the literature. As the result shows, there exists a shortage of information about results of the introduction of care robots, the needs of recipients and care providers, and relevant ethical problems. To advance our research and to introduce care robots into setting, there are so many things to do; consider the application of natural language processing technology by collaborating with researchers in the robotics field, carry out an investigation, extract the needs, clarify ethical problems and seek solutions, conduct the on-site experiment study, and so on.
