Elderly Care IoT Solution
Smart Elderly Care Monitoring System for Nursing Homes and Senior Care Facilities
OWON Elderly Care Solution is a scalable and configurable IoT-based monitoring system designed for nursing homes, assisted living facilities, senior apartments, and healthcare institutions. The solution focuses on safety, health monitoring, emergency response, and operational efficiency, helping care providers improve service quality while reducing management costs.
Built on ZigBee-based wireless networking, the solution connects panic buttons, fall detectors, sleep monitoring devices, door/window sensors, occupancy sensors, and multi-sensors to a centralized management platform for real-time alerts, room-level visibility, and faster caregiver response.
Key Application Scenarios
The OWON elderly care IoT solution is designed for various senior care environments, addressing different safety and monitoring needs across facilities.
| Care Scenario | Typical Needs | Key Devices | Benefits |
|---|---|---|---|
| Nursing homes | Emergency alerts, fall detection, room monitoring | Panic Button, Fall Detector, PIR Sensors | Improve resident safety and response speed |
| Assisted living | Daily activity tracking, sleep monitoring | Sleep Monitoring Pad, PIR Sensors | Enable proactive care and reduce manual checks |
| Senior apartments | Exit monitoring, independent living safety | Door/Window Sensor, Occupancy Sensor | Prevent wandering and enhance security |
| Rehabilitation centers | Continuous monitoring and recovery tracking | Multi-sensors, Environmental Sensors | Support patient recovery and care efficiency |
These scenarios demonstrate how the system can be flexibly deployed across different elderly care projects, from single facilities to large multi-site operations.
Core Functions of the Elderly Care Monitoring System
The OWON elderly care IoT solution integrates multiple monitoring functions with dedicated ZigBee devices to ensure real-time safety, health visibility, and rapid emergency response across care facilities.
It enables caregivers to monitor resident activity, detect abnormal events such as falls or inactivity, and receive instant alerts through a centralized management platform.
| Function Module | What It Monitors | Supporting Devices | Value for Care Providers |
|---|---|---|---|
| Emergency Call & Alarm | SOS calls, pull-cord alerts, emergency triggers | Panic Button (PB 206 / PB 236) | Enables immediate response to resident emergencies |
| Fall Detection | Fall events and abnormal inactivity | Fall Detector (FDS 315 / FDS 315H) | Reduces risk and response time for critical incidents |
| Room Activity Monitoring | Motion, presence, inactivity | PIR 323, PIR 313, Occupancy Sensor (OPS 305) | Helps caregivers understand daily activity patterns |
| Sleep & Bed Monitoring | On-bed / off-bed status, sleep-related activity | Sleep Monitoring Pad (SPM 915 / 912 / 913) | Improves night-time care and reduces manual checks |
| Door & Exit Monitoring | Door/window open/close status | Door/Window Sensor (DWS 332) | Prevents wandering and enhances resident safety |
| Environmental Monitoring | Temperature, humidity, light conditions | PIR 313, PIR 323, THS series | Maintains comfortable and safe living environment |
| Centralized Monitoring | Device status, alarms, room-level visualization | ZigBee Gateway (SEG-X5), Dashboard Platform | Enables efficient multi-room and multi-site management |
Beyond device-level monitoring, the system is supported by a centralized platform that can be deployed on a private server or cloud environment.
The platform allows caregivers and operators to visualize room status, manage alarms, configure devices, and define user access levels across different roles.
With flexible system architecture, the solution supports ZigBee gateways for stable local networking, as well as API-based integration with third-party healthcare or building management systems.
This makes it suitable for both small-scale elderly care facilities and large multi-site deployments.
