11 +People of old age usually have smaller houses and fewer rooms than bigger families. This allows the user to not move the robot room-by-room, but have it in a central position from where it's audible in the entire house. The tablet could be moved but it should always be within the patient's reach. The home consists of a bedroom, kitchen, bathroom and a living room.

Nursing homes may also be referred to as skilled nursing facilities, long-term care facilities, old people's homes, assisted living facilities care homes, rest homes, convalescent homes, or convalescent care.//

33 -In these care facilities, there are usually multiple elderly people who battle with different diseases or just simply feel alone at home and would like to socialize with people more in their age group. There are however people, who are not safe to be left alone at home, meaning they can't do their daily activities safely, or in case of an emergency, they couldn't call for help.

35 -Care facilities could be social places where elderly people talk to each other and socialize while being supervised by professional caregivers. There are people who have the mental capability to do their daily tasks but are bored at home (usually because of the passing of their spouse).
