The joy of the loved ones is among the key factors to happy life. People require extra attention from health monitoring point in order to stay healthy and safe. Therefore, a practical innovation product to monitor patient health such as the elderly monitoring system is developed and proposed in this article. The product is based on Internet-of-Things (IoT)where it can monitor the body temperature, pulse rate and respiratory rate of the patient on a long distance using smartphones. The proposed system uses node MCU as a microcontroller, three sensor units and Thing Speak as the application platform. A smart lifestyle typically among the elderly can be developed using innovative products like this in the future. It can help doctors and guardians to monitor elderly patients from long-haul distance. The results for three males with different ages are compared and averaged.
