Thoughts from Paulo to ponder while reviewing the article:

I consider innovations very important in health care setting to be utilized in combating the COVID-19 virus like the use of technologies or robots from telehealth visit to sanitizing of the floor and performing surgeries.

• With evolving healthcare and technology, should nurses solely rely on the robots? Can robots replace nurses and doctors?
• What are the benefits of robotic nurse for patients? Are there ethical issues concerning the use of these robots?
• At Phelps, do you use any robot or advance technology in your unit to deliver care for you patients?
