Abstract

Medication adherence and timely health check-ups are critical for effective healthcare, particularly for chronically ill patients and the elderly. This project introduces a Patient Reminder System with GSM Technology to help patients manage their healthcare schedules. The system uses a microcontroller and a GSM module to send automated SMS reminders for tasks like taking medications, going to doctor appointments, and performing routine health activities.
The system ensures dependable communication and can be tailored to individual requirements, increasing compliance and lowering the risks associated with missed treatments. This cost-effective and user-friendly solution is especially useful in remote areas where healthcare resources are scarce. The paper delves into the system's design, implementation, and testing, with a focus on its practical applications and the potential for integration with advanced healthcare systems to improve patient outcomes.
