About the show

Explore tools, trends, and expert insights for care home operators and innovators. In each episode, I speak with people building new AI tools, or those implementing them successfully.

We explore how AI can be ethically and effectively applied in care settings and dig into: -Where AI is delivering real efficiencies and value-The practical side of adopting new tech in a care environment-The ethical, operational, and human considerations-How AI intersects with marketing, business development, and organisational systems
