An intelligent monitoring system for care place is illustrated. The system includes a thermal camera capturing a thermal image of the care place an image processing unit obtaining users position and number of user according to region in which temperature is higher than a preset temperature in the thermal image a temperature recording unit extracting and records users temperature from the thermal image. When there is only one user, a abnormal event determining unit of the system determines whether an abnormal event occurs according to users temperature changing rate. When there are several users, the abnormal event determining unit determines whether the abnormal event occurs according to both of the temperature changing rates of the users and an average temperature of the users. If the abnormal event occurs, the warning unit generates a warning signal.
