Abstract

A Reminder System Integrated with GSM technology is designed for application in hospitals. The reminder system will be used in the patients’ rooms in hospitals and will be monitored by the nurse. Advantages of this system are it will not only benefit the nurses by easing their workload, it also makes it easier for patients to contact the nurse. This research is aimed to find out how to effectively monitor patients’ medicine consumption, besides improving patients’ facilities in the hospital. Application of this reminder system consists of two parts of the main component, whereby one will be used by the nurse and the other for the benefit of the patient. How the system operates is firstly, after the patient has taken the medicine, he/she needs to push the button. Hence, the nurse gets the Short Message Service (SMS) through GSM network informing as such. Secondly, the system will serve as an emergency button. Whenever the patient needs help or assistance from the nurse, he/she will just need to push the emergency button and the nurse on duty will immediately get the message. This system provides for the nurse to monitor a patient’s consumption of medicines at the right time and also for the patient to be able to easily pursue help from the nurse.
