AI Companion Robots: Shaping the Future of Emotional Support and Elderly Care
The Hidden Needs in Elderly Care: Beyond Care, Towards Companionship and Intimacy
According to statistics, Taiwan's population aged 65 and above has surpassed four million, and many families choose to place their elders in care institutions. However, beyond basic medical care and daily support, emotional emptiness and loneliness are often the real struggles faced by seniors.
Many elderly people long for intimacy and emotional comfort. This is not only about sexual needs, but also the deeper desire for emotional connection. This is why internationally, a new care concept has emerged: the "sexual relaxation room" or "intimacy room".
What Is a "Sexual Relaxation Room"? A Cultural Revolution in Nursing Homes
A "sexual relaxation room" refers to a private space set up within care institutions, allowing seniors to engage in intimate interaction, sexual expression, or self-relief under appropriate conditions. Its core philosophy is to respect emotional autonomy and human dignity.
- Privacy and Respect: Spaces with locks and "Do Not Disturb" signs.
- Staff Education: Training caregivers to understand emotional needs and avoid discrimination or misunderstanding.
- Ethical Review Mechanism: Assessment and protection procedures for individuals with cognitive impairments.
Such systems have already been adopted in elderly care homes in Europe, Japan, and Australia. For example, Brookdale Senior Center in the UK and the Amsterdam Care Village in the Netherlands have formally introduced intimacy rooms, receiving strong support from both families and seniors.

Conclusion: Companionship and Intimacy Should No Longer Be Absent in Elderly Care
Taiwanese society is about to enter a super-aged era. Emotional, intimate, and sexual needs of seniors, once neglected, will become the new focus of care innovation. Whether through the cultural advancement of sexual relaxation rooms or the practical use of AI companion robots, we believe:
Growing old does not mean losing the right to be embraced and loved.
