摘要

The present invention refers to a communication system for supporting Older people, thinking in the physical and physiological safety of them, which consists in a portable device (button) associated to a WiFi module for interconnecting sensors in the body of the Older people, including a Central Unit where the signals are monitored; alarms would be configured if required, the Older People may be communicated by voice and/or data for requesting support. This is a non-invasive system and is intended to monitor Older People at home. The invention uses the voice and data Internet technology, which enables a response before an emergency to be obtained in no more than 15 seconds, or less depending on the Internet supplier, which is quicker than using the traditional telephone service. As an additional advantage, specific conditions such as vital signs may be monitored, alarms based on the registered information may be automated; the calls frequency and the hours may also be registered in an automatic manner using the common WiFi link. The invention is designed for systems intended to support Older People in hospitals, clinics and home. In the case of a home configuration, the monitoring of the Older People is performed with a cellular phone or any other device with Internet connection such as an iPad, iPhone, Tablet, PC, based on alarm criteria established by the user itself.
