“…Dünnebeil et al used NFC tags to provide secure and quick access to medical information as well as an alternative ID form for various caregiver's use [3]. In 2010, Crepaldi et al used the principle of creating a biosensor that receives its energy externally using an RF link, like a passive RFID tag and features of RFID such as low power consumption [4]. Bravo et al have proposed applications of NFC for Alzheimer patients in a day centre and at home for visualization and monitoring [5].…”

Home health care and home automation increasingly allows more seniors to maintain independence, and remain longer in their own homes. Similarly, a post-surgical patient may be discharged from a medical facility to their house, which electronically facilitates their recuperation and promotes recovery. Smart environments are making the task of providing assistive technology in the home easier and more affordable. Near-field communication (NFC) has become popular in recent years. Increasing uptake of NFC-enabled smartphones has opened a new avenue to facilitate creation of a smart environment without the need for significant infrastructure. HTML5 is the latest version of the hypertext markup language, with unique code that enables access to advanced features on a smartphone. Proprietary apps can potentially be inconvenient and inconsistent and may even decrease uptake of the technology. In this paper, we propose a new methodology to enable NFC tags and NFC smartphones in conjunction with HTML5 backbone code, to be used for smart environments in home health care applications without the need for specific applications to be installed on the smartphone. Results show significant promise with just the built in phone software with use of NFC and HTML5 for various applications of smart environments. In many common tasks in a smart environment that increase patient safety, NFC tags can be not only informative, but an integral component of the system by triggering specific HTML5 code to provide appropriate responses -without the need to install specialized apps as long as the NFC is enabled in the mobile device.
