I talked about a similar situation with the HR Director when I was still working. I.E. What if I had a medical emergency at home and no way to get someone to help me. If it was Mon-Fri and I didn't show up to work, yeah, someone would wonder. But on the weekend? After that there was 1 or 2 occasions where I overslept and she called me to make sure I was OK!
What precipitated the conversation was an instance where I fell down and couldn't get back up. I had 2 dogs at the time and they were no good... in fact, they caused the fall. I laid on the floor for about 10 minutes until I stopped hurting enough to crawl to something to pull myself up.
So yeah, I've thought about it a lot especially now that I'm older and live alone. I would hope that my neighbors might notice something but they are so busy who knows.
