One robot at Changi General Hospital can perform dedicated tasks, such as providing patients in the emergency department waiting area with items they need like a blanket.
One of Changi General Hospital's (CGH) robots makes 16 medication delivery rounds each day, saving precious time of up to two hours for the nurses there. With a lighter load, the nurses can have more time with their patients. That time can then be spent with patients on tasks like wound dressing and attending to their basic care needs.
Another robot guides people to different areas of the emergency department, relieving nurses of the task of escorting patients in person, which typically takes one-and-a-half hours a day in total.
A third robot can perform dedicated tasks, such as providing patients in the waiting area with items they need like a blanket. The robot alone has reduced the workload of retrieving items by nearly half.
