Identifying the Need for Remote Elderly Monitoring and Caregiver Support System

The client requires a secure, scalable mobile application that enables caregivers to monitor the health and wellbeing of elderly patients remotely. The system must support real-time condition tracking, emergency alerting through SOS activation, and automatic notifications to emergency services, integrating with the existing backend infrastructure that manages IoT device data and health information.

About the Client

A mid-sized healthcare technology provider specializing in remote patient monitoring solutions for elderly care facilities and individual caregivers.

Goals for Developing an Advanced Telecare and Monitoring Platform

  • Build a cross-platform mobile application enabling caregivers to monitor elderly patients' health status efficiently.
  • Implement real-time data collection and visualization from IoT health devices installed in patients' homes or care facilities.
  • Enable automatic and manual emergency notifications, including SOS activation and contact with emergency services.
  • Ensure seamless integration with the client's existing backend systems and IoT data sources.
  • Deliver an MVP within a short development cycle to facilitate early adoption and iterative enhancement.
  • Provide ongoing support and maintenance to improve system stability and incorporate user feedback.

Core Functional Features for a Remote Elderly Care Monitoring System

  • Real-time health and wellbeing data display from IoT devices
  • Manual SOS button for immediate emergency alerts
  • Automated contact trigger for critical health events
  • Integration of IoT device data with secure storage and management
  • Two-way communication channels between caregivers and patients
  • Visualization dashboard for tracking patient health history and trends
  • Integration with emergency response services and existing backend ecosystem
  • Support for cross-platform deployment including mobile, web, and desktop interfaces

Preferred Technologies and Architectural Approach

.NET framework for backend services
Azure cloud services for scalable hosting and data management
PostgreSQL for relational data storage
Flutter for cross-platform mobile app development
Webhooks for two-way communication and integration

Necessary External System Integrations

  • IoT device data streams for health monitoring
  • Emergency services contact and dispatch APIs
  • Existing backend systems for data retrieval and management
  • Notification and alerting services

Critical Non-Functional System Attributes

  • High reliability and system uptime to ensure continuous monitoring
  • Responsive UI with fast load times
  • Secure data transmission and storage complying with healthcare standards
  • Scalability to support increasing patient and caregiver users
  • Performance metrics to support real-time data processing and alerting

Projected Outcomes and Business Benefits of the Monitoring Platform

The platform aims to improve elderly patient safety through timely alerts and continuous monitoring, reduce caregiver response times, and facilitate early intervention. The system is expected to support scalable growth with minimal downtime, enhance data visibility for caregivers, and enable automatic emergency contact, thereby increasing overall quality of elderly care and operational efficiency.
