First Claim
1. A system for remote care and monitoring, comprising:
- a first mobile device for use by a first user;
a second device for use by a second user; and
a server, the server configured to communicate with the first mobile device and the second device;
wherein the first mobile device is configured to detect and log information about the activity and inactivity of the first user, the activity and inactivity of the first user being determined by at least one of;
at least one location of the first mobile device, at least one movement of the first mobile device, at least one picture automatically captured by the first mobile device, at least one video automatically captured by the first mobile device, at least one intended destination of the first mobile device, at least one response by the first user to at least one wellness check-in, at least one phone call of the first mobile device, at least one response by the first user to at least one medication reminder, at least one response by the first user to at least one alert, at least one fall detection of the first device, at least one idleness check of the first device, or at least one violation of a medical profile of the first user;
wherein the second device is configured to communicate with the first mobile device through the server to allow the second user to customize a user interface for the first user on the first mobile device;
wherein the second device is further configured to communicate with and monitor the first user through the first mobile device;
wherein the second device is further configured to control a plurality of functions of the first mobile device; and
wherein the first mobile device is configured to automatically establish a live telephonic and/or voice-over-IP (VOIP) call comprising audio and/or video communications between the first user and the second user, the call being initiated by the second user through the second device and/or the server, and the call being automatically established without interaction by the first user with the first mobile device after the first mobile device authenticates the second user and validates that the second user has initiated the call.
