About

Dr. Jae-Young Lim is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of geriatric nursing and robotic healthcare technology. Her primary research focuses on identifying the specific needs and applications of care robots in integrated nursing services, particularly for elderly inpatient care. In her landmark 2018 study, "Nurses’ needs for care robots in integrated nursing care services" (98 citations), Dr. Lim conducted a comprehensive needs assessment among nurses, establishing a prioritized framework for robotic care implementation. This work is especially critical given Korea's projected transition to a super-aged society by 2030, where robotic assistance could alleviate the burden on informal caregivers and enhance patient safety. Dr. Lim's contributions extend to comparative effectiveness research in spinal surgery, as evidenced by her involvement in the MIS ReFRESH prospective study comparing robotic-guided versus fluoro-guided minimally invasive fusion surgery. Her work bridges the gap between technological innovation and practical clinical application, offering evidence-based guidance for integrating robotics into both surgical and care settings. Dr. Lim's research has significant implications for healthcare policy, workforce planning, and the development of patient-centered robotic solutions in aging societies.
