Hyejin Park, PhD, RN, is an associate professor at the Florida State University College of Nursing. Her research focuses on technology-assisted interventions for caregivers of individuals with dementia and other vulnerable populations.  Dr. Park emphasizes a patient-centered approach in her studies, aiming to thoroughly understand the needs and perspectives of both patients and their caregivers within the framework of technology-enabled care. This approach ensures that the solutions developed are not only effective but also align with the real-world experiences and challenges faced by those involved in caregiving. Her multidisciplinary research leverages artificial intelligence technologies to enhance care for Alzheimer's patients and their caregivers, including those managing care from a distance. By utilizing AI, Dr. Park aims to create systems that can monitor patient activities, provide timely reminders, and facilitate communication between caregivers and healthcare professionals. This technology-driven support helps reduce the burden on caregivers, allowing them to focus more on providing compassionate care. Dr. Park's work has significant implications for improving the quality of life for both patients and caregivers. Through her innovative research, she seeks to develop solutions that empower caregivers, enhance patient safety, and promote better health outcomes.
