<abstract id="abst" lang="en">
<p id="pa01" num="0001">A system for alerting a remote user to a potential incident concerning a vulnerable person comprises:<br/>
a hub module for location in the same building as the vulnerable person, comprising means for data communication with a cellular wireless data network;<br/>
a plurality of sensors arranged to establish a short-range data connection with said hub module;<br/>
an identifying module forming part of, or in short-range data connection with the hub module and arranged to determine the presence of a particular individual;<br/>
a server remote from the building arranged in data communication with the hub module and comprising a user interface by which a user can specify one or more rules for triggering an alert, said rule(s) involving output of one or more of the sensors. The system is arranged to monitor the output of the sensors to determine whether any rule has been met and, if a rule has been met, to issue a predefined alert.
