CHARLESTON, S.C. (April 2, 2026) – Harmony Senior Services announced the launch of advanced floor cleaning robots in its senior living communities throughout the East Coast, MidWest, and Southeastern states. The investment in robotics marks a significant milestone in the company’s ongoing commitment to innovation and resident well-being through its Harmony Ascend technology initiative. The high-powered robots will operate seven days a week and provide consistent, efficient, and thorough cleaning of high-traffic areas such as hallways and common spaces.
John McCarthy, Chief Technology Officer of Harmony Senior Services, shared, “We are passionate about continually providing innovative solutions to improve the lives of our residents and their families.” He continued, “The floor cleaning robots are an example of how Harmony is leveraging technology to efficiently manage time-consuming tasks, allowing our associates to spend more dedicated time with our residents.”
The AI powered cleaning robots offer autonomous mapping to scrub, sweep, vacuum, wet mop and dry mop floors and can self-adjust to different flooring types. The robots can cover over 230,000 square feet on a single 10-hour charge.
Leaders at each Harmony community provided education and training for residents and staff on the new initiative. A robot naming contest led by the residents will be held over the coming weeks.
