As individuals age, their cognitive abilities diminish, leading to increased instances of forgetfulness, particularly in adhering to medication schedules. This poses significant health risks, including improper dosages or medication errors among the elderly. To address this issue, this study proposes an enhanced automatic medicine reminder system utilizing an RTC module integrated with an ESP32 microcontroller to facilitate precise medication timing and consistency. Furthermore, the inclusionof a GSM module enables caretakers to remotely monitor patients' adherence by receiving realtime notifications on their smartphones. This enhanced system offers a proactive approach to medication management, enhancing patient safety and caregiver oversight in geriatric healthcare settings.
