A Human Caregiver Support System in Elderly Monitoring Facility
The number of elderly population is increasing worldwide and often they need assistance in their daily activities. In many situations, these elders are placed in elderly care facilities in order to receive continuous assistance from the human caregivers. The caregivers usually keep a watchful eye on the elders and help them in their activities of daily living. However, study shows that the human caregivers often suffer from boredom for being engaged in monitoring the elderly, which also compromises the care and assistance needed for the vulnerable elderly. In order to address this issue, we propose a human caregiver support system that aims to comprehend elderly persons' activities and decides what services to provide them in different situations and when to notify the human caregiver about any incident that happens in the care facility. Our preliminary experiment shows the potential of such system.
