Lessen Social Isolation

January 25, 2023

When was the last time you visited your parents or grandparents?

Social isolation is a significant issue in aged care settings.

However, as older adults are more susceptible to negative outcomes from COVID-19, they may need to avoid broader social contact and maintain physical distance in order to protect their health. Then there’s living long distances from family. As the elderly often have low digital literacy, isolation can be increased and, ultimately, have detrimental effects on their well-being.

Ohmni telepresence robots are designed to make socially isolated people feel included, seen, and heard. A robot in an older person’s home has the added benefit of being no-touch technology. Authorised calls can come in without the elderly person needing to operate the tech.

Overcome social isolation and provide uninterrupted access to care with the Ohmni Telepresence robot.
