This paper presents a novel Fiber Bragg Grating pressure sensor system which monitors the sitting and sleeping pattern of bedridden patients based on indicative spatio-temporal signature for automated intervention triggering and activity planning to prevent bedsore generation. In particular, we present the subtle design, fabrication, implementation and deployment issues of the FBG sensors to be used in a hospital or nursing home environment. In addition, we exploit Semantic Web standards to provide a reusable middleware support system for providing a number of novel services that facilitate care-giving and clinical assessment of bedridden patients in a context enlightened fashion.
