Abstract

This study aimed to answer whether the development of robotic technology can overcome sleep disturbance problems and reduce the risk of falling in older adults. The research method used is a non-systemic literature review that discusses automated technology in elderly care. The research results show that from a study of 7 journals, the use of robotic technology in providing care for older adults is very beneficial. This technology is also able to reduce problems in older adults, one of which is sleep disturbance and the risk of falling. The use of this technology is not only beneficial for older adults but also beneficial for caregivers. In conclusion, using robotic technology in the senior service area at home and in hospitals or nursing homes can reduce health risks in the elderly.
