Abstract

Many patients with major mental illness do not take their medication. This leads to repeated relapses. Some of these patients are managed by clinicians who visit the patient seven days a week long term and supervise their taking of medication. This paper explores the design and implementation of an Android telemonitoring application to supervise patients taking medication in their homes.
