Transforming Elderly Care Facilities: Overcoming Operational, Infrastructure & Safety Challenges Through Intelligent Design and Automation

The Hidden Cost of Outdated Infrastructure

Across Europe and the U.S., more than 70% of nursing homes were built before 1999, many lacking modern safety systems, smart energy management, and accessibility features.
Aging facilities not only pose safety and mobility risks for residents but also limit the implementation of modern robotic systems that can support staff and automate operations.

Common operational challenges include:

• Complex and inefficient workflows between departments.
• Poor air circulation and energy inefficiency.
• Difficult emergency evacuation paths.
• Inadequate infection control infrastructure.
• Limited digital integration between facility systems.

To build the Robotic Assisted Nursing Home of the future, Hash-Tech envisions a new model of intelligent, robotic-ready architecture.

🧠 Our Integrated Solutions for the Next-Generation Elderly Home

1️⃣ Robotic-Designed Architecture

At the heart of Hash-Tech’s nursing home automation vision lies a ceiling-integrated robotic transport system — a revolutionary design that enables autonomous movement of robots above ground level.
This eliminates hallway congestion and ensures barrier-free logistics, allowing units like TrollyBot to deliver meals, medicine, laundry, and equipment across zones safely and efficiently.

The design also allows real-time monitoring through mounted sensors and cameras, forming the “nervous system” of the Robotic Assisted Nursing Home.

2️⃣ Universal Design for Accessibility & Comfort

Every structure follows universal design standards — wider corridors, voice-activated doors, modular bathrooms, and adaptive lighting.
This makes the facility fully accessible not only for seniors but also for service robots like ErgoBot and SeniorFit, enabling seamless Robotic Assisted Ergotherapy, Occupational Therapy, and Rehabilitation sessions anywhere in the building.

3️⃣ Modular & Scalable Construction

Future-ready homes must grow with demand.
Our modular construction model enables:

• Scalable expansion without disrupting care operations.
• Rapid reconfiguration in case of emergencies.
• Efficient zoning for infection control or isolation needs.

This approach ensures sustainability, flexibility, and operational safety — three pillars of modern elderly care.

4️⃣ AI-Driven Building Management

Energy efficiency and environmental quality are vital for resident wellbeing.
Our AI-based Building Management System (BMS) autonomously controls:

• Air quality through sensor-driven ventilation.
• Temperature and humidity for health-optimized comfort.
• Lighting and energy via adaptive, solar-supported microgrids.

A solar-integrated green farm can power large sections of the facility while providing fresh food for residents, addressing both energy and nutrition sustainability goals.

5️⃣ AI-Based Safety & Incident Detection

Privacy-respectful AI cameras continuously monitor hallways and common areas, detecting:

• Falls and mobility abnormalities.
• Smoke, water leaks, or fire hazards.
• Unusual resident movement patterns.

By combining data from PhysioEye and building sensors, the system can alert caregivers instantly — reducing incident response times by up to 60%.

6️⃣ Zonal Sterilization Units

Post-pandemic standards require continuous sanitation.
Autonomous UV-C and steam disinfection robots move between facility zones during low-activity hours, ensuring pathogen-free surfaces and minimizing infection risks.
This automated cleaning network can reduce infection transmission rates by up to 90%.

🌍 Toward a Safer, Smarter, and More Sustainable Future

By integrating robotic architecture, AI energy systems, and automated safety protocols, Hash-Tech is redefining the Robotic Assisted Nursing Home.
Through nursing home automation, Robotic Assisted Ergotherapy, and AI-powered building management, we create environments that are not just smart — but alive, adaptive, and secure.

Our systems — TrollyBot, PhysioEye, ErgoBot, and SeniorFit — operate as part of a cohesive ecosystem, merging human care and machine precision to deliver comfort, safety, and sustainability for decades to come.
