Abstract: With todays increasing technologies, people also are using robots in different sectors of human life to make life easier. Meanwhile, in the care of patients, robots are used in the medicare system. A nursing robot has the ability to carry out basic nursing care functions as expected by the patients like that a human nurse. But in our country patients do not get proper nursing care, accordingly, older people are suffered a lot. They always forget to take their medicine at the proper time. So, in this paper, it is our main concern about patients or older people to remind taking medicine in time and to provide pure drinking water at any time when the patients desired. We made a framework that is a line follower robot works with IR sensor and Arduino UNO microcontroller. RF receiver receives signals from respective patients. A real-time clock (RTC) is used to supply medicine in due time. IR sensor and Ultrasonic sensor sense the presence of water glass and the level of drinking water.
