Abstract
Home healthcare services enable patients to live in an environment and amongst people they are familiar with while receiving the healthcare they need. However, to provide such an arrangement, readings from healthcare devices need to be read and analyzed on a regular basis to determine healthcare services needed by patients. Then the services that are needed are matched with a limited number of healthcare professionals capable of providing the services needed. In this paper, we present a system we developed to that is capable of meeting the above requirements, but in a manner that enables patients to feel they are in charge of their healthcare while meeting licensing requirements, legal requirements, and travel schedule restrictions of professional healthcare personnel.
