Abstract

One of the greatest hurdles in providing the appropriate healthcare is the availability of proper information at the point of individual's care. Mobile phone-based health solutions can bridge this gap and can support with right information at the right time. In order to overcome some of the prevalent issues and hence provide the necessary healthcare, we here introduce one such mobile based system known as the Personalized Mobile Health Service System for Individual's Healthcare which caters to the specific needs of the user without the constraint on mobility. This system helps in guiding the user with regard to the food they consume, the precautionary measures to be taken in case of any ailments, and when they travel to a new location etc. This system also proves to be supportive in situations when the user is in a traumatic condition suffering alone. The main advantage of the system is that it will keep updating the details to the user on a regular basis.
