1. A medical system for radio-based remote monitoring of a location of a patient relative to a building, said system comprising:

  • a plurality of first radio-based stations, selected from the group consisting of transmission stations and receiving stations, distributed inside said building, operating according to a first locating technology;

    a plurality of second radio-based stations, selected from the group consisting of transmission stations and receiving stations, distributed outside of said building and operating according to a second locating technology different from said first locating technology;

    a third radio-based station, selected from the group consisting of a transmission station and a receiving station, assigned to the patient that at least temporarily establishes a building-internal radio communication with at least one of said first stations and that at least temporarily establishes a building-external communication with at least one of said second stations, in order to produce at least one location-relevant radio signal via said building-internal radio communication or said building-external radio communication;

    a control unit having access to said building-internal radio communication and said building-external radio communication that determines the location of the patient from said at least one location-relevant radio signal; and
