Robotics in Healthcare

Robots are rapidly growing to form part of human life in the current. Technological
advances in various sectors have seen the introduction of robots to ease the work of humans.
The healthcare landscape comprises one of the areas that robots are growing and making a
significant impact. The use of robots in healthcare is one of the exciting opportunities that
promise to help several people because of its dynamic nature. Robots in healthcare settings
help clinicians perform their duties as well as help people with cognitive, sensory, and motor
impairments. Robots are physically embodied systems that enact physical change in the
world. They are devices fitted with sensor data to help them operate by listening to the
commands they receive from the owner (Riek, 2017). Even though robots in healthcare
experience challenges on acceptance, privacy issues, and initial costs, they are vital to the
healthcare sector since they can improve care for the elderly by improving their daily
activities and ease the work of nurses in hospitals by perfor...
