SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR SENDING MEDICAL EMERGENCY ALERTS
First Claim
1. A system for sending medical emergency alerts comprising:
- a device body adapted to be attached to a user;
an accelerometer connected to the device body;
a wireless communications module;
a user interface;
a processor in communication with the accelerometer, the wireless communications module, and the user interface;
a memory in communication with the processor, the memory including instructions that, when executed by the processor, cause the processor toreceive acceleration data from the accelerometer,analyze the acceleration data to determine if a fall condition is present, andwhen the fall condition is present, communicate, via the wireless communication module, an alert to a caregiver mobile device, wherein the alert is adapted to indicate that the user wearing the device body has fallen.
