Remote monitoring of patients can help reduce the health risks of doctors and nurses in dedicated COVID-19 hospitals or isolation units. The physiological data such as body temperature, oxygen saturation level and heart pulse rate are the most important parameters for COVID19 patients or isolated suspected COVID19 patients. In this paper, a healthcare monitoring system for dedicated COVID19 hospital and isolation center has been designed and implemented. The system incorporates oximeter sensors, heart rate sensors, and temperature sensors to monitor patient's oxygen saturation level, heart rate and body temperature respectively. The patient's physiological data is displayed on an LCD display by which the healthcare workers can monitor the data from outside the COVID-19 isolation area and can only come to aid the patients when it becomes necessary. Therefore, the platform facilitates the medical team to observe the patients' data remotely.
