This paper presents the development of a microcontroller based system for wireless heartbeat and temperature monitoring using ZigBee. In India many patients are dying because of heart attacks and reason behind that they are not getting timely and proper help. To give them timely and proper help first we want to continuous monitoring of patient health. The fixed monitoring system can be used only when the patient is on bed and this system are huge and only available in the hospitals in ICU. The system is developed for home use by patients that are not in a critical condition but need to be constant or periodically monitored by clinician or family. [1] In any critical condition the SMS is send to the doctor or any family member. [2] So that we can easily save many lives by providing them quick service.
