Notably, the capabilities and communication strategies of robots differ from those of traditional computing devices because robots can interact with users through facial expressions, body movements, and natural language [5]. Consequently, robots can be programmed using AI technologies to provide patients with tailored diagnostic and therapeutic information, thereby meeting individual demands for health services [12].

Care robots, which include both social and assistive robots, show promise for addressing the mismatch between the aging population and the shortage of professional caregivers in ALFs. Interest in care robotics is growing, with a 585% increase in publications on health care robots from 2011 to 2021 [10]. Social robots, which include companion robots, perform work tasks based on “interactional performances” between humans (eg, caregivers and patients) or with pets [11].

Furthermore, socially assistive robots may reduce the burden on caregivers to continuously monitor older adults who live alone with cognitive impairments and are at daily risk of various accidents [13].
Hence, our goal is to develop assistive robots that enable older adults’ remote participation in conversational cognitive training with the same degree of effectiveness as in-person social interaction for cognitive function.

Robotics in Nursing: Protocol for a Scoping Review
On the other hand, robotics integration in nursing also raises inquiries regarding the methodologies, technologies, and ethics of developing robots to support the work of nurses and other health care professionals [23].
In broad terms, robots in health care are classified into surgical, rehabilitation, medical assistants, and hospital service robots [24].

However, studies of using robots among older immigrants living in the community are sparse. Their preferences for the appearance and function of aged care robots are unclear, which impact the acceptance and usability of robots, and therefore, a user-centered design is required. It is imperative to understand users’ needs and preferences before designing and developing a robot to meet their specific care needs [10].

Although not included in this study, socially assistive robots (SARs) may represent the best opportunity for developing this, as they have already been shown to have benefits for socialization [13,30]. In addition to monitoring socializing activities, SARs may play an active role in supporting the community-dwelling older adults through conversation or facilitating communication between people.

Technology-Mediated Enrichment in Aged Care: Survey and Interview Study
There is also a large body of research evaluating trials of technologies used for social well-being in aged care, including robot pets for companionship and comfort [8], social robots for entertainment [9,10], videoconferencing and social networking tools for communication [11], video games for playful interactions [12], and virtual reality (VR) for reminiscence [13].
