Summary

In this protocol, the researchers will shift from the past short-term methods to a longer-term deployment and study of a robotic system in a skilled nursing facility setting. The research team will use a repeated baseline-intervention period to understand changes brought on by the robot, specifically. The robot will be deployed in the partnering SNF ambiently (i.e., in a public setting where all residents can elect to use it on demand). Additionally, the researchers will make bi-weekly visits to check in and observe participants performing the intervention activity. The research team will share findings using academic conferences and journals.
