The project is open to residents of Seongbuk District aged 65 and older who need support in managing chronic diseases and improving their lifestyle habits. Participants will undergo a preliminary health assessment to identify health risk factors and, based on their individual health status, they will selectively receive devices such as smart bands, scales, blood pressure monitors, and blood glucose meters on loan.


Participating seniors will manage their measured health information by linking it with a smartphone app, while health professionals at the Seongbuk District Public Health Center will provide non-face-to-face, personalized health care services based on this data.


Now in its fourth year, this project is recognized as Seongbuk District's leading smart health care initiative. By continuously operating the program, Seongbuk District has supported the prevention of chronic diseases and the adoption of healthy lifestyles among seniors.



An official from the Seongbuk District Public Health Center stated, "As the AI·IoT-based senior health care project marks its fourth year, we will further enhance our personalized health care services and continue to expand health management support through smart technologies."
