Abstract

In view of today’s society of advanced medical technology and popularity of social networking, remote home care will become the new stream of health care services. In this paper, the medical resources and information technology were combined to set up a self-administered healthcare warning mechanism. Through wireless transmission, patients’ psychological status can be monitored at home. Under the event-driven mode, appropriate professional medical advice and response measures were proposed so that the subjects could safely and effectively engage self-care at home under the support of information technology. Depending on individuals’ needs, information technology can reduce the care costs and enhance the medical service quality, thereby achieving the goal of seamless integration of the health care system both inside and outside the hospital.
