Medical care Application

Abstract

We aim, as a team, to develop ourselves and join our scientific and practical experience within this project, as information technology students to present an idea to help our grandparents, and parents in particular, and to help the Palestinian community and other communities. Especially the category that is least practicing technology and keeping up with it, which is the elderly category, and facilitating patients’ companions to stay in constant contact with their data easily. In general, this is part of our social responsibility as community members and within the university's vision and strategy as a communityserving university Our project is a mobile application where the elderly can track their medical treatment by regulating the timing and intake of their medication. This is done by either entering their medication manually or by taking a picture of the medication name and converting it to text. The application will remind them of the medication time, in addition to sending a notification when the available quantity is over. It can also keep its daily records and keep track of measurements, such as sugar levels or blood pressure. It also saves these records, which can be seen in a line chart. Furthermore, it can remind them of medical appointments, examinations, therapy session. These records can be kept as an online copy where the total medical history of the patient can be seen. As most elderly people experience memory loss or are unable to keep track of their conditions, the app can add an additional user such as (a doctor, or companion), who can monitor the patient's condition and view his medical record and personal data such as (a list of the patient's diseases, the medications he takes, and the medical examinations that were entered). To ensure that no unauthorized person enters the system and adds medicines or controls patients' doses, we have added a system administrator to manage users and supervise doctors in terms of looking at the doctor's practice certificate, and accordingly the doctor is accepted or rejected.
