We introduce a taxonomy of important factors to consider when designing interactions with an assistive robot in a senior living facility. These factors are derived from our reflection on two field studies and are grouped into the following high-level categories: primary user (residents), care partners, robot, facility and external circumstances. We outline how multiple factors in these categories impact different aspects of personalization, such as adjusting interactions based on the unique needs of a resident or modifying alerts about the robot's status for different care partners. This preliminary taxonomy serves as a framework for considering how to deploy personalized assistive robots in the complex caregiving ecosystem.
