摘要
隨著科技快速發展與網際網路日益普及，生活品質的提升與醫學的進步，老 年人口持續攀升。跟據行政院經建會調查台灣六十歲以上的老年人口占總人口的 比率已超過12%，預計再過五年將高達十五%。台灣社會人口逐漸成長為高齡化 的社會型態。另外，面對現代小家庭結構核心化，生育率逐漸降低，職婦女比率 攀高，家庭的照顧功能日漸薄弱，加上護理人力不足，老人的照護問題逐漸引起 注意。 本研究利用ZigBee 無線射頻技術與監控系統整合簡訊平台及單晶片，經由 無線網路系統與電腦影像連結發展智慧型照護系統，有效通報老年人的突發狀 況，以減輕醫護人力的負擔與照護成本的浪費。

Due to the ageing of world’s population, falls has become one of the major causes of mortality and morbidity in the elderly. In developed countries, most falls occur around the home or community。In addition, because of the modern social and economic developments，more and more younger adults have jobs and cannot take care of the elder and leave them stay at home along during the day time that accidents might happen more often and cause damage under such conditions。 This paper presents a Zigbee-based home emergency notification system integrating with SMS common platform、single-chip controller and video techniques for home accidents and elder falls in particular。Through the application of Zigbee technique，people are free moving without cables or being monitored by cameras all the time。The purpose for the system is to shorten the response time and have better preparation for rescue that not only share the burden of the care givers, but also reduce the costs of healthcare。ERR") {
