About
Carlotta Patrone is a researcher at the forefront of applying domotics, robotics, and automated tele-monitoring to improve care for older adults. Her work directly addresses the critical issue of delayed hospital discharge (DHD), where patients occupy about 8% of hospital beds due to gaps in home-care or long-term care arrangements. Patrone’s most cited study, "Development of a smart post-hospitalization facility for older people" (2019, 5 citations), proposes an innovative technological solution to bridge this gap, integrating smart home systems and robotic assistance to enable safer, more independent living after hospitalization. By focusing on the intersection of geriatric care and emerging technologies, she aims to reduce hospital readmissions and enhance quality of life. Her contributions are particularly notable for their practical, patient-centered approach, offering a scalable model for post-acute care. Patrone’s work is a vital step toward a future where technology seamlessly supports aging populations, making her a key voice in the fields of gerontechnology and healthcare innovation.
