The monitoring of assisted living requires the existence of tools that capture vital signs from the user and also as well as environment data. Ubiquitous healthcare aims to use technologies such as: wireless sensor networks, context awareness, low-power electronics, and so on. This work employs Information and Communication Technologies (ICT) to provide a technologically and socially acceptable solution to aid elderly and disabled people to live a more independent life as long as possible, and to maintain their regular everyday activities at their own home. As a study case, we have implement a simulation of a smart home, called Follow-Us, comprised of networked computational devices. Follow-Us can be used in different ambients such as hospitals, houses, rest homes, gyms, so on. In particular, we present the simulation in a house plan.
