%X Regular healthcare center visit can be very chal-lenging for elderly and patients residing in rural areas. This is because most elderly suffers from disability while patients from rural areas need to travel for a long distance to the healthcare center. To overcome this issue, this paper proposed a remote patient monitoring system (RPMS), a low-cost wearable wrist band that utilizes set of technologies and practices enabling healthcare providers to track the patients' health data changes in real-time even from a distance. The RPMS collect the patient's body vitals data including body temperature, heart rate, oxygen saturation level, and position to allow the healthcare providers to identify any potential diseases of the patient and use it in the preparation of a treatment plan. The location of patient would also be captured using Global Positioning System to allow immediate medical attention in the event of emergency. The RPMS proposed is also capable of sending the data to the cloud and display the data in the mobile app. Simple diagnostic using thresholding method is also carried out and reflected in the mobile app. © 2022 IEEE.
