In the researchers' words
The aim of this study is to conduct and evaluate a controlled experimental trial aimed at exploring whether, to what extent and how a socially-assistive Pepper robot that operates on a unique CARESSES cultural competence solution can produce better health and well-being related outcomes among older adults residing in long stay care homes (and their informal carers) compared to a control socially-assistive Pepper robot with an alternative CARESSES solution, as well as care as usual.
