A social-and context-aware multi-sensor platform is presented, which integrates information of fall detection systems and sensors at the home of the elderly, by using an ontology.This integrated contextual information allows to automatically and continuously assess the fall risk of the elderly, to more accurately detect falls and identify false alarms and to automatically notify the appropriate caregiver.
