AbstractParticipants: W.-K. Song, J. S. Hong, Y. M. Shin, C. Kim, E. C. Lee and K. Kim (Korea). ISSUE Korea’s population is aging rapidly. Care robots are of great help to older adults, people with severe disabilities, and caregivers. Robotic technology is used to assist caregivers with transfer, posture change, toileting, and eating among various daily life activities. Care robots require translational research between basic science and clinical research as well as the development of service models. CONTENT Our symposium is designed to bring together speakers developing care robots and service models in Korea to highlight 1) robotic technology for transfer, posture change, toileting, and eating, and 2) service models that use robotic technology.Keywords: care robot, service model, people with disability, older adults, mobility, posture control, toileting, eating
