Abstract: The rapid growth of the Internet of Things (IoT) has significantly transformed the healthcare sector by enabling real-time monitoring, automation, and intelligent decision-making. Traditional hospital systems often rely on manual monitoring and limited automation, which can lead to delayed responses and inefficiencies in patient care. This paper presents an IoT-based hospital automation and patient monitoring system that continuously monitors vital health parameters such as temperature, heart rate, oxygen saturation (SpO₂), and environmental conditions. The system integrates smart sensors, microcontrollers, and cloud platforms to collect, process, and transmit data in real time. Medical staff can access patient data remotely through a web or mobile interface, enabling timely intervention and improved healthcare management. The proposed system enhances patient safety, reduces workload on medical staff, and improves the overall efficiency of hospital operations.
