    HEALTH MAINTENANCE ASSISTANT APP

    CHAPTER 1
    Project Context
    Aging of the population, an increased life expectancy, and the need for
    an independent living are already widely recognized social changes that
    put a massive pressure on the healthcare system. In this context, the
    inclusion and involvement of elders in the IT society is mandatory.
    Assistive technology (technology designed to increase, maintain, or
    improve the functional capabilities of older adults,), due to its
    impressive evolution, is believed to be capable of solving the gap
    between the wishes of the elders and their needs. Although a wide range
    of technology is present in the daily lives of seniors, directly dealing
    with it can be frustrating and stigmatizing especially due to the lack of
    ease of use. It is erroneously considered that technology design is
    already user-friendly. Considering the deterioration of physical and
    cognitive abilities, the present paper is a theoretical overview on the
    most important design principles and device features needed to fulfill the
    elders’ needs. This review can serve as a starting point for researchers
    and practitioners in their endeavor to design more suitable technology
    for older people. (Technological Forecasting and Social Change Volume
    155, June 2020, 119977).
    Objectives of the study
     To help users manage their healthcare effectively by
    reminding them to take their medications on time and alerting
    through the apps.
     To facilitate a seamless flow of information between the user
    and healthcare professionals, enabling better coordinated care
    and health management.

    Significance of the Study
    Monitoring Scheduled medicine maintenance for elders might be
    inaccurate if it is done manually specially if you have a hectic schedule.
    The user can modify the schedule for daily usage of medicine for elders
    and it will notify directly to the guardian who modify the schedule.
    Elder/Patient.
    An in individual who is receiving needed professional services that are
    directed by licensed practitioner of the healing arts toward maintenance.
    Developers.
    This study broadens Knowledge of the researcher in the system
    development by reminding to take a medicine. The study shall be a
    motivation to venture into the study of automatic medicine reminder
    using the application.
    Future Researcher.
    The future researcher learns to value the importance of enhancing their
    skills and work performance while gaining knowledge to the study.
    Scope And Delimitation
    The Health Maintenance Assistant App is designed to empower individuals to take
    charge of their health through a suite of functionalities including medication
    reminders, medicine information scanner, and alarm medicine intake. It serves a
    broad audience, from those looking to improve their general well-being to patients
    managing chronic conditions, by offering a user-friendly interface compatible with
    Android platforms and capable of integrating with wearable devices for real-time
    data tracking. However, the app's utility is delimited by geographical and cultural
    limitations, focusing initially on select regions and may not fully accommodate all
    global dietary preferences. It is intended for non-acute, chronic condition
    management and does not substitute professional medical consultations. Adherence
    to data privacy laws is paramount, imposing restrictions on data sharing.
    Moreover, the app's functionality is contingent upon internet access and the
    accuracy of third-party device data, with limited integration capabilities with
    existing healthcare systems due to diverse standards and regulations.

    Review Of Related Literature

    he use of mobile health (mHealth) has become common in recent years and is
    regarded as one of the most effective interventions for developing disease-specific
    management skills and establishing confidence in making preventive health
    behavior changes and accomplishing health-related goals among community-
    dwelling older adults. Most mHealth designs adopt a reactive care approach
    whereby health care professionals do not respond until they receive abnormal
    assessment results from the database or a message or signal from the client. The
    purpose of this study is to determine the effectiveness of a proactive mobile health
    application program with the support of a community health-social care team for
    older adults dwelling in the community on improving their self-care health
    management.Arkers Kwan Ching Wong;
