This paper conceptualises the development of an Intelligent Home Care system to assist health care professionals and carers in providing an enhanced level of support to senior citizens. The social demographics in the developed world indicate a decline in population growth, indicating a need for greater resources to be dedicated towards enhancing the lives of an aging society. Furthermore, the dissociation of extended family structures in modern society results in senior citizens to take greater independence in managing their own lives. With the technological advances in the Tele-Homecare domain, there is an impetus to develop improved computational techniques that reflect the nature of complex systems in medicine and biology.
