North-west care provider has collaborated with Bear Robotics and introduced a robot staff member to its new home in Harrogate.
The robot technology helps support residents with maintaining independence.
Alfred, as named by the home, weaves through the home’s communal areas, allowing residents and team members to return cups and plates back to another part of the home or even send a cup of tea to a bedroom.
Chief operating officer Debbie Baker said: “As a forward-thinking organisation, we remain committed to continuously enhancing our services through the adoption of innovative technologies that improve the quality of care and support for our residents”.
EMEA head of sales for Bear Robotics, Malachy Ryan, said: “We understand the importance of helping care home residents live their lives to the fullest. That is why we have worked so hard in developing smart solutions to enhance the quality of communal senior-living experiences.
“Servi + is our state-of-the-art foodservice solution to help make any dining experience exceptional”.
