Abstract
A subscription system and corresponding method of operation for monitoring user'"'"'s well-being is disclosed. The method includes the steps of providing, at a user monitor module, a first indicator for the user well-being; providing, at a receiving module operably coupled to the user monitor module, a first threshold for the first indicator; receiving, at the receiving module, the first indication; comparing the first indication and the first threshold; generating a secondary indication when the comparison indicates that the first indication equals or exceeds the first threshold; receiving, at a supervisory module coupled to the receiver module, the secondary indication; and informing a supervisor that the first threshold has been reached.

2. A method for monitoring a user, the method comprising:
-
receiving, by at least one portable device, a first indicator from a user monitor device, the first indicator corresponding to a physical characteristic of the user as monitored by the user monitor device; identifying, by the portable device, a threshold value for the first indicator; comparing, by the portable device, the first indication and the first threshold; generating, by the portable device, a second indication when the comparison indicates that the first indication equals or exceeds the first threshold; and transmitting, by the portable device, the second indication. - View Dependent Claims (3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12)
