With physical functions degraded, many senior citizens, who encountered incidents such as collision, stumble or unexpected discomfort but were not helped immediately, may suffer from various mishaps.
- Likewise, the critically ill patients who need particular health care confront the similar dilemma. It is a painful case that a patient discharged from a hospital cannot contact other people forthwith when he/she had a relapse at home without health care similar to a hospital.
- To solve those problems and avoid incidents, some families hire health care workers to take care of senior citizens or patients. In this regard, the health care workers may put senior citizens or patients, who suffered from incidents but were not reported to a hospital within a golden window, in irreversible injury when the workers failed in round-the-clock care of the senior citizens or patients.
- Therefore, how to provide an emergency reporting device and a system thereof for immediate reporting emergency status is a technical issue which deserves to be addressed by the persons skilled in the art.
