Wireless Nursing Home Management: A Real- Time Iot-Based Healthcare Solution
Keywords:
Wireless healthcare monitoring, Arduino Uno, Max30102m real-time patient data, IoT-based nursing system, ECG trackingAbstract
This paper describes the creation of a Wireless Nursing Home Management System aimed at enhancing real-time patient surveillance and administrative activities. The system employs two Arduino Uno transmitter nodes positioned near patients to assess vital signs including pulse rate, oxygen saturation, body temperature, and ECG signals using MAX30102, DS18B20, and AD8232 sensors. The readings are shown on small OLED displays and transmitted wirelessly through nRF24L01 modules to a central Arduino receiver linked to a PC. A Python application handles this data, saves it in a MongoDB database, and displays it via a dynamic web interface featuring interactive graphs and real-time notifications. Alongside patient monitoring, the system features administrative components for handling patient records, inventory management, and staff payroll. This cohesive and adaptable solution seeks to enhance healthcare services and operational effectiveness in nursing facilities by utilizing IoT and automation.
