Abstract: A voltage detection device includes a voltage divider circuit, a comparator circuit and a switch control circuit. The voltage divider circuit operates in a first mode based on a switching signal and divides a power voltage to generate an input voltage. The comparator circuit compares the input voltage with a set of reference voltages to generate a detection signal. The switch control circuit selectively adjusts a switching signal according to the detection signal after a predetermined period has elapsed from power-on of the power voltage so as to control the voltage divider circuit to switch from operating in the first mode to operating in a second mode. The first mode corresponds to a first target level of the power voltage, the second mode corresponds to a second target level of the power voltage, and the first target level is higher than the second target level.

Abstract: A care system monitoring method for sensing the movement state of a bedridden person is provided. The care system monitoring method includes the following stages. Initial-state information is sensed. A first warning signal is issued to remind the caregiver to perform a movement action on the bedridden person when the time that the bedridden person has been in the initial state exceeds the threshold period. First-state information (which is information that is collected when the bedridden person is in the first state) is sensed after completing the movement action. It is determined whether the bedridden person was moved correctly according to the initial-state information and the first-state information. The first-state information is reset as the initial-state information if it is determined that the bedridden person has been moved correctly. A second warning signal is issued if it is determined that the bedridden person has been moved incorrectly.
