Story by Kyle Hall, Calgary Scientific
When we discovered that one of our technology providers, Calgary Scientific, had a DoubleRobotics robot just like ours, we hatched an idea. In my role as telehealth coordinator, I am always looking for ways to connect people over distances with technology. With the two Doubles, one in Omaha and the other in Canada, I saw an opportunity to bring some fun via telepresence to our bravest patients, the kids on the pediatric oncology ward.
