Falls of older people in hospitals are common, so there should me techniques in order to reduce these falls. Pressure sensor systems were used for the detection of these falls, which resulted in a larger number of false alarms. Wireless sensors became more advanced in current scenario and using these wireless sensors falls can be prevented mostly. Unlike pressure sensors usage which needs a constant maintainance of the system wireless sensor system is more better in many ways. The type of design which can monitor health condition and analyze the movement and give an alert if patient is moving out of his bed going wrong and we can transmit data wirelessly anywhere by using GSM technology.
