Abstract

Nowadays, with the busyness of lifestyle, the focus on parents has diminished. At the same time, the need for nursing homes has increased. As the number of elderly people in nursing homes increases, the number of elderly people living there cannot be considered individually. And nowadays, people are not willing to work in such places. Because they have to work without pay or at low wages. About 95% of seniors in nursing homes have poor health. And their behavior patterns are very different. For these reasons, the authority to manage nursing homes faces a major challenge. They have a big role to play in giving each adult proper medication and healing their mental level. As a solution to this problem, authors hope to compare it with technology and provide a solution. Authors decided to create the relevant items and software for this. This is done using an adult friendly handrail and camera system in the proposed methods. Advanced ML, image processing and hardware parts are used in this technology world. This allows you to focus on each adult 24 h throughout the day. One of the main benefits of this is that it pays more attention with less staff. According to our survey, this has proved to be an essential factor for nursing homes. By creating this, it will be possible to provide healthier and more productive services to the elderly.
