## Article

Apart from the developments in hospital equipment’s and pharmaceutical products, new catalyst in technological innovations like the internet has become a feasible platform for the elderly citizens. Wellbeing and extreme care can be manifested through applications on smart phones or other smart devices. The connectivity and communication gaps are bridged through these creative applications in a superfluous fashion. The IoT (Internet of Things) is a next generation technology which is connection of uniquely identifiable smart objects and sensors based on the backbone of Internet. These are connected in advanced manner and it can go beyond machine-to machine interactions. Using this automation the elderly healthcare system can be made more advanced. Global healthcare services are facing challenges because of the rapid growth of elderly population, thus a creative way is needed to face this challenge due to recent development in electronics and many number of devices have come up which can monitor patients’ health record in real time as well as can be monitored remotely through Internet. The IoT enabled monitoring devices have RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) associated with it. Using RFID these devices can be accessed over the Internet at any time which in turn will allow constant monitoring of the patients. So H2U healthcare system for elderly is important to meet the health service demands in order to monitor daily activities of the elderly people. The project is aimed to continuously checking the heart beats and blood pressure of the user who has wear the heart beat sensor and blood pressure sensor. If the heart beat or blood pressure or both exceed or eluded the specific limit then the system sends message to the family member and doctor which is in users database. It also sends location of the patient with the message. And system sends command to buzzer for alarm.
