Yes, there are. For instance, I mentioned exoskeletons. Exoskeletons aren't just used in health care. From the research that I've done, I know they're also used in construction. They are meant to relieve pressure on the body when something heavy is being lifted, whether it's on a construction site or whether it's in a care home, a resident home or whatever it might be. There are advancements that are being made.
It's essentially a suit that's put on a specific part of the body. It could be to support the shoulders, the neck, the upper body or the back. Exoskeletons are also used for residents themselves, in order to help them with their mobility, with getting up, getting dressed, moving around and that sort of thing.
Technology is complex, and it's a very nuanced topic. On the one hand, technology is enabling patients, residents and clients to look after themselves and potentially have a better quality of life, but at the same time it's reducing their need and their reliance on a health care aide or a personal support worker. I think advancements in technology, particularly in health care, are really fascinating in the ways in which they could completely transform long-term care. That's why we're saying we're fascinated by the advancements, but I think there has to be more of an understanding about the impact of those advancements on both patients and workers.
