About
Lisa Obst is a leading researcher at the intersection of geriatric care, human resources, and service robotics. Her work critically examines how robotic technologies can be integrated into inpatient geriatric settings, with a particular focus on the human and organizational factors that determine success. Her most influential contribution is the qualitative systematic review "Introducing service robotics in inpatient geriatric care—a qualitative systematic review from a human resources perspective" (2020, 13 citations), which provides a foundational analysis of nursing home staff perspectives on robotic devices. Building on this, she developed the "Service Robots in Nursing Homes (SeRoNu): a holistic model of influencing factors" (2022, 2 citations), offering a comprehensive framework that maps the complex interplay of technological, organizational, and human factors affecting robot adoption in elderly care. Her work is particularly notable for centering the human resources dimension—addressing workforce challenges, staff attitudes, and the practical realities of care environments. By bridging robotics and geriatric nursing, Obst provides essential guidance for both researchers and practitioners navigating the integration of automation in aging societies.
