  As described above, the storage management unit 53 stores the number of occurrences of the alert in the first database 61 on a daily basis. The first display information transmission means 51 can set the number of occurrences of daily alerts stored in the first database 61 in the display information.

  In the watching system configured as described above, the server main body 5 of the server 10 executes a program corresponding to the flowchart shown in FIG. The operation will be described below. It is detected whether the status information from the sensors 11-1 to 11-n has been sent (S11). When the status information is sent, it is determined whether or not to send an alert based on the sent status information (S12). For example, even if “the state at the moment when a person gets off the bed” is turned on, an alert may not be transmitted if a predetermined time has not elapsed.

  If it is determined that an alert is to be transmitted, individual information of the target person is obtained from the first database 61 based on the sensor identification information, display message information is obtained from the state information, and alert notification display information is created and sent to the terminal. Transmit (S13). The transmission at this time can be sent by broadcast. Moreover, the 1st, 2nd display information transmission means 51 and 52 produces the display information regarding a some subject as information which has arrange | positioned on one screen of a terminal. This information is received by the terminal and displayed. For example, as shown in the uppermost area of FIG. 9, on the terminal carried by the caregiver, for example, the name 82 of the subject person is displayed in the center on the pink back surface 81 and the room number 83 is displayed in the upper left corner. The display message information 84 is displayed in the upper right corner, the occurrence time 85 is displayed in the lower left corner, and the alert occurrence count 86 is displayed in the lower right corner.

  In addition, as shown in FIG. 10, the shared use terminal has a line at the top of the display screen, a pink back surface 91, a room number, the name of the target person, display message information, an occurrence time, and the number of occurrences of an alert. Display information for displaying an alert image including such information is sent. In addition, at the end of the alert image, a “complete” button is displayed that is operated when a caregiver or the like using the shared terminal performs a response. By operating the “Done” button, the corresponding alert image is deleted.

  Following step S13, it is monitored whether operation information such as a screen from the terminal has been transmitted (S14). When the area where the alert is displayed on the terminal display screen is tapped, the individual information and the terminal address of the target person are sent as correspondence information from the terminal, and the server body 5 that receives this branches to YES in step S14. Then, a URL for camera access is searched based on the individual information of the target person to detect whether the camera is present (S15), and if the process branches to YES in step S15, the URL searched above is notified to the terminal side. The terminal side accesses the received URL and displays a video (S16). If no camera is detected in step S15, the process branches to NO. On the screen on which the video is displayed, the state of the subject can be confirmed with a real-time video. Thereby, the operator of the terminal can visually check the state of the care recipient.

  After step S16, it is monitored whether a predetermined time has elapsed since the transmission of the video or whether a predetermined key operation for requesting an input screen for a corresponding result has been performed (S17). In this way, video display is completed in a predetermined time, and the privacy of the target person can be protected. After the elapse of a predetermined time or a predetermined key operation is performed, or after branching to NO in step S15, the video information of the input screen of the corresponding result is transmitted (S18). Thereby, the input screen for inputting the correspondence result as shown in FIG. 11 is displayed on the caregiver's terminal. In this example, the buttons “Correspondence completed”, “Correspondence not required”, and “Call” are displayed, but other buttons may be displayed. “Supported” is a button that is operated when the caregiver himself / herself responds, “Not required” is a button that is operated when it is determined that the response is literally unnecessary, and “Call” is handled by the caregiver. It is a button that is operated when support is needed or cannot be done. Note that the display on the joint use terminal includes a “Now working” button that is selected when someone starts the handling, and a “Complete” button that is selected when the handling is completed.

  Next to step S18, it is detected whether or not a response result has been input (S19). When the response result is input, it is detected from the terminal address of the transmission source whether the terminal is a caregiver terminal or a joint use terminal. Depending on whether it is a caregiver's terminal or a joint use terminal, the second display information transmission means 52 creates display information in response in which the display information transmitted by the first display information transmission means 51 is changed. Transmit to the terminal (S20).

  The information transmitted in step S20 is received by the terminal and displayed. For example, when the source of the response result is the caregiver's terminal, the name 82 of the subject person is displayed in the center on the blue back surface 81B as shown in the area below the uppermost area in FIG. Number 83 is displayed in the upper left corner, and display message information 84 is displayed in the upper right corner. In the case of an alert, the occurrence time 85 is displayed in the lower left corner, and the number of occurrences 86 of the alert is displayed in the lower right corner. Instead, the name of the corresponding caregiver is displayed below the display area of the name 82. A message 88 indicating that a response is in progress is displayed. This is created by the second display information transmitting means 52 based on information associated with the caregiver's individual information and the caregiver's terminal address, which is the information in the second database 62. .

  On the other hand, when the transmission source of the correspondence result is a joint use terminal, as shown in the lowermost area of FIG. 9, the name 82 of the subject person is displayed in the center on the blue back surface 81B, and the room number 83 is in the upper left corner. And display message information 84 in the upper right corner. When the sender of the response result is a caregiver's terminal, a message 88 indicating that the corresponding caregiver's name and the corresponding caregiver are being displayed is displayed below the name 82 display area. For example, a message 89 such as “Mimamori support system is supported” is displayed. This message is created when it is a response from the joint use terminal based on the information in the second database 62.

  In addition, as shown in FIG. 12, the shared use terminal has a line at the top of the display screen, a blue back surface 91B, a room number, the name of the target person, display message information, and a responder (corresponding Display information for displaying a message indicating that the response is from the caregiver or the joint use terminal is sent. The display information of the occurrence time and the number of occurrences of the alert transmitted in the case of alert notification is not transmitted.

  As described above, in the present embodiment, the alert notification and the notification in the case of responding to the target person are displayed so as to be clearly distinguishable, so it is clear how to respond by simply looking at the display. Suitable for support. Further, it is convenient because an image of the subject can be viewed on the terminal and the situation can be grasped without going to the subject's room. In addition, when it is clear whether the corresponding caregiver is responding individually or by checking with a joint use terminal, when personnel such as care facilities work with a sense of unity Very convenient.

  In the above embodiment, the alert notification is broadcast to all terminals. However, a terminal that transmits the alert notification may be specified according to the work status of the caregiver or the alert level. In the above embodiment, in step S18, an input screen for inputting a correspondence result as shown in FIG. 11 is displayed on the caregiver's terminal. For example, the patient imaged by the network camera in step S16 As shown in FIG. 13, an input screen for inputting the correspondence result may be displayed on the screen on which the video image is displayed. In FIG. 13, “Completed” is displayed as a button corresponding to “Completed” in FIG. 11 and “Call” is displayed as a button corresponding to “Call”. However, a space is provided or the size of the button is changed. Other buttons such as “no action required” may be displayed by downsizing.
