Healthcare and social care professionals in Milton Keynes are invited to an upcoming event focused on robotic innovations.
Milton Keynes City Council, in partnership with Smart City Consultancy, is hosting a drop-in session at the Experience Centre.
Robotics for Better Care
The event, scheduled for September 9, aims to demonstrate how robotics can enhance patient and client support.
Showcased technologies include automated medication delivery, advanced physical assistance, remote condition monitoring, and solutions to support the care workforce.
Innovators behind these robotic solutions are eager to engage with local care professionals. They seek to understand the sector’s current challenges and future needs.
Council-Funded Initiative
This initiative is supported by funding from Milton Keynes City Council, specifically through its RoboPASS programme.
This programme is part of a larger government grant awarded to the council late last year, totalling nearly £800,000.
The funding aims to establish Milton Keynes as a leader in the application of robotics within public spaces across the UK.
The drop-in event will facilitate discussions, allowing innovators to gain insights into specific requirements and present their technological developments.
These advancements are designed to assist local authorities and care providers in meeting diverse patient and client needs, promoting independence and improving physical support.
