The future caretaker for the Aging at Home or Hospital at Home concept.

This is from Twitter. Berci Meskó, MD, PhD @Berci
It's incredible looking at all the humanoid robots that are currently under construction.
Here is their name, country of origin, height, and weight.
What we can fairly conclude from this is that there will be humanoid robots on the market very soon.

@sirref, interesting concept. There are already "digital companion" type devices to help combat loneliness and provide companionship for people living on their own. But in light of @scottrl's comment about losing the ability to reach top shelves, I would opt for a taller robot. 🙂

Did you know that Mayo Clinic is a leader in Advance Care at Home? This is not solely for aging in place however:
- Mayo Clinic launches advanced care at home model of care https://newsnetwork.mayoclinic.org/discussion/mayo-clinic-launches-advanced-care-at-home-model-of-care/

What measure are you taking to prepare to age in place? Do you want to?
