Inspiration

We got inspired to create this project by interviewing healthcare providers. We interviewed healthcare providers on inconveniences they experienced and became inspired to increase patient safety by combating those inconveniences.

What it does

For our project we built a webapp that assists healthcare professionals in Patient tracking and Triage in order to reduce response time and errors in the emergency room.

How we built it

We used ReactJS to create the structure and functionality of our webapp. We also used CSS to define the layout and design the webapp. Additionally, we used Django for building the backend of our web application. We utilized Django for URL Routing and Admin Interface.

Challenges we ran into

Some of the challenges that we ran into was getting out webapp to interact with our API. It was our first time working with the Cross-origin resource sharing (CORS) mechanism and had a difficult time doing the configuration.

Accomplishments that we're proud of

Some of the accomplishments that we are proud of is having an concept that is applicable to real life and is beneficial to people in need.

What we learned

Throughout this project, we learned how to create a web application using ReactJS and also got to learn about CORS.

What's next for SwiftCare

We want to implement more features such as tracking patients vitals or the probability they are to fall and how we can prevent it.
