工业化国家的医疗保健系统面临着为越来越多的老年人提供护理的挑战。信息技术有可能通过各种支持系统为护理人员提供支持并改善老年人的福祉，从而促进这一过程。人们对在护理环境中部署技术所带来的挑战知之甚少；然而，将技术融入护理是成功支持的核心决定因素之一。本文以欧洲项目“长期场景中的时空表征和认知控制活动”(STRANDS) 中的移动机器人为例，介绍了将技术融入护理中所面临的挑战和选择，其中使用移动机器人来支持对患有认知障碍的老年人进行物理治疗。本文介绍了在护理背景下引入机器人所面临的技术挑战，以及所涉及的物理治疗师的观点以及所获得的信息和经验的概述。希望这将为希望将机器人辅助设备整合到护理过程中的研究人员和从业人员的工作提供有用的信息。
Healthcare systems in industrialized countries face the challenge of providing care for a growing number of elderly people. Information technology has the possibility of facilitating this process by providing support for nursing staff and improving the well-being of the elderly through a variety of support systems.Little is known about the challenges that arise from the deployment of technology in care settings; however, the integration of technology into care is one of the core determinants of successful support. This article presents the challenges and options associated with the integration of technology into care using the example of a mobile robot to support physiotherapy for elderly people with cognitive impairment in the European project Spatio-Temporal Representations and Activities for Cognitive Control in Long-Term Scenarios (STRANDS).This article presents the technical challenges associated with the introduction of robots in the context of care as well as the perspectives of physiotherapists involved and an overview of information and experiences gained. It is hoped that this will provide useful information for the work of researchers and practitioners wishing to integrate robotic aids into the caregiving process.
