Intervention Group: The functions performed by the robot include guiding patients through unit-specific locations for environmental orientation and equipment usage instructions, playing educational videos related to care, reminding patients of important examination precautions, providing health education on specimen collection, and delivering responses through an expert-developed medical Q\&A system.
Study summary
To address workforce shortages and increasing workloads in nursing, technological solutions and AI-powered robots for ward navigation have been introduced. However, limitations remain in their application to clinical care. This study aims to develop and test a programming framework for an AI-assisted nursing care robot ("E-Nursing Assistant") to reduce nurses' workload and improve the efficiency and quality of care.

Primary outcome measure(s)
Workload-related stress in nursing staff — It will be measured pre-intervention and immediately after the intervention. The investigators utilized the Nurse Stress Checklist Chinese version translated by Taiwanese scholars in 1996. The scale consists of four factors: "Personal Response," "Work Concerns," "Job Competence," and "Inability to Complete Personal Tasks." It contains a total of 43 items, each rated on a 9-point Likert scale (0 = not at all, 1 = not close, 8 = very close), with higher scores indicating greater levels of work-related stress.
