This innovative project addresses critical problems related to the welfare of elderly people by introducing a cutting-edge Internet of Things (IoT) gadget designed with great attention to detail to monitor the health of senior patients. The device utilises IoT technology to create an effective and uninterrupted tracking system for important health parameters, such as body temperature and pulse rate, in response to the limitations caused by the absence of real-time and remote health monitoring. The main objective of this project is to provide a comprehensive system that effectively monitors and records the health problems of older patients in their everyday surroundings. By effectively integrating a variety of sensors, the gadget expands its functionalities beyond conventional monitoring. This enables the remote monitoring of patients' health status, including their adherence to medicine and other relevant health indicators. The expected result entails the secure transfer of the gathered data to a ThingSpeak server and Microsoft Excel, paving the way for comprehensive analysis and ongoing monitoring. This strategy not only tackles current deficiencies in geriatric care but also foresees forthcoming healthcare requirements, promoting a fundamental change towards proactive, tailored, and technology-based healthcare solutions. This project aims to leverage the revolutionary potential of IoT to greatly improve the well-being of elderly people, introducing a new era of holistic and preemptive healthcare interventions.
