<![CDATA[Today, health monitoring relies heavily on technological advancements. This study proposes a low-power wide-area network (LPWAN) based, multinodal health monitoring system to monitor vital physiological data. The suggested system consists of two nodes, an indoor node, and an outdoor node, and the nodes communicate via long range (LoRa) transceivers. Outdoor nodes use an MPU6050 module, heart rate, oxygen pulse, temperature, and skin resistance sensors and transmit sensed values to the indoor node. We transferred the data received by the master node to the cloud using the Adafruit cloud service. The system can operate with a coverage of 4.5 km, where the optimal distance between outdoor sensor nodes and the indoor master node is 4 km. To further predict fall detection, various machine learning classification techniques have been applied. Upon comparing various classifier techniques, the decision tree method achieved an accuracy of 0.99864 with a training and testing ratio of 70:30. By developing accurate prediction models, we can identify high-risk individuals and implement preventative measures to reduce the likelihood of a fall occurring. Remote monitoring of the health and physical status of elderly people has proven to be the most beneficial application of this technology.]]>
