In recent times, monitoring health round the clock is crucial. These data must be transferred to the hospital in realtime, which is usually done with the help of Wi-Fi. There can be delays in transferring due to various reasons. To tackle this, we can use Light Fidelity (Li-Fi). Li-Fi uses light as a medium to transfer data. As the speed of light is faster, the data can be transferred very quickly. This will help by alerting the medical staff early and letting help get to the needed in a faster period. In rural areas, there may be fewer facilities having a Wi-Fi connection, but light will be easily available. So, by using Li-Fi, the senior citizens, or a person in need of round-the-clock care with have better care.
