Backgrounded app - Local Notifications

I'm working on an app that syncs with Apple Health events. Every time an event occurs, the app should send a notification.

The problem occurs when the app is backgrounded or force-closed; it can no longer send local notifications, and because these events can occur at any time, scheduled notifications can't be used.

I'm just wondering if anyone's found a creative way around this. I know we can't override system behaviour, I'm just thinking of other alternative solutions for the matter.

How does that work? Unless the user turns off the notification switch or the power of the device itself is off, the app is supposed to receive notification alerts.
