This software intends to substitute a paper-based planner that I used to use for keeping track of patients, appointments, and scheduled surgeries in my medical practice.
As a context, I work at a day hospital that provides medical services to the public health care system in my country. We need to triage those patients before surgery and to follow up for some time depending on the procedure, before returning them to the referring clinic.
We receive a fixed number of patients per week for a triage appointment, but we also have to schedule all follow-up consultations in a way that does not overload our capacity. Besides that, I need to keep track of my scheduled surgeries to balance the surgery types for each day to optimize for time to patient discharge.
All that information is kept in two paper-based planners. Scheduled surgeries and some appointments are registered in a planner that I carry along with me and the rest in another one that is with the day hospital secretary. The main problem that I want to solve is to synchronize those pieces of information and let them available to both of us.
This problem could be solved with some cloud-based services, but I needed some inspiration for a side project, so I build this full-stack web application.
There is an ansible playbook in the build
folder that installs and configures
the system in a Debian server (I did not test it with other distros).
It requires access to the server with a public key authentication.
Create an inventory file with all the required values.
If all you want is just test the app, just go to the dev
folder and follow
the instructions in the
README file
to start the backend. Then, go to the frontend/reactfrontend
and type
yarn start
. It will open the web app in a browser window. Login with
user [email protected]
and password test1234
.
It is designed to be a web-based application.
