MIT-Developed Robot Helps Nurses Make Decisions
BOSTON (CBS) – Robots in the operating room are nothing new--but now, a robot named Ginger has been specifically designed to help nurses. Kristen Jerrier works on the Labor and Delivery floor at Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center. She's the resource nurse, which pretty much means she's in charge. "I usually decide which nurse will take that patient, what room they'll go to and I'm usually talking to the physician about what that patient might need," she says. And when it comes to the business of delivering babies, things can get hectic real fast.
