Internet of Things-based care monitoring for the elderly and those with special needs

As a society, we should provide support and care for individuals who are advanced in age or have special needs. We must offer them the opportunity to lead a safe and comfortable life. Sometimes, addressing simple things can mitigate critical problems. For instance, an improperly functioning heating system can put the users' lives at risk, and a gas leak can prove fatal if not detected in time. Hence, this study aims to identify solutions that can help prevent accidents in such vulnerable populations. To achieve this, a safety device equipped with essential sensors continuously monitors the living environment of people with special needs. If there are any anomalies, the system will immediately alert the concerned family members and competent security authorities, ensuring a quick and efficient response to potential emergencies. The proposed safety device aims to provide extra protection and peace of mind for special care individuals. By implementing such safety measures, we can make significant strides in promoting the well-being and safety of vulnerable populations.
