Community  Care

Community  Care

Doctors can advise treatment plans and medication while nursing staff/caregivers can apply the desired therapy on elderly/disabled patients at their homes as directed by doctors.



Process Followed

Before putting the methodology of application development into practice, it was important for our team to devise a systematic approach and deliver a solution that meets the client's expectations. From emphasizing the UX/UI of the app to identifying the problems and doing beta testing of an app, many more things were required to be programmed accordingly. The QSS team followed an intensive process to create a native and hybrid application.

Problem Statement

The existing community care system has been developed using older technologies at both frontend and backend. The customer intention to develop a new portal with similar functions using ReactJS at frontend and Java with Spring Boot and Hibernate framework at the backend. The community care is about providing treatment to patients at home who are either older in age or disabled, due to which, they cannot afford to have regular follow-ups at the health facilities of providers. The care team includes -Nursing staff, caregivers and doctors.

In this system, doctors at hospitals are required to be well connected with nursing staff, caregivers and patients through high availability of this secure and scalable solution. Doctors and care team members can view patients’ details in a standard format like PHR/EMR. The complete system supposes to build as per HIPAA compliance and HL7 standards as a market place for community and organizations.

Feasibility Study

In discussion with the customer, it was required to implement web and cross-platform mobile applications, which can allow all users of this system to be well connected. The patients can share their reports. Doctors can advise treatment plans and medication while nursing staff/caregivers can apply the desired therapy on patients as directed by doctors. A web backend also supposed to be provided to admin. The system includes a number of important features as following.

  • Secure role-based login for users
  • Alerts
  • Events
  • Dashboard
  • Clients
  • Scheduling
  • Admin
  • Reports

The Challenges

Major challenges while developing the solution:

  • Implementation of complex UI/UX
  • Managing UI/UX layout with a large amount of data
  • Real-time alerts and Push notifications
  • Complex process and workflow management
Challenges

Solution Applied

We captured requirements, performed business analysis and presented the customer with wireframes/static screenshots for the complete process. The functional specification defines complete process flow as well as underneath workflow under process flow, wherever required. A high level and detailed designed scalable, secure and performance-oriented architecture presented to the customer providing tech stack details to be used in this application.


The application development started in an agile mode and product/spring backlog managed on GitLab. The user’s stories progress tracked over the Kanban chart. The technology stack used was a complete JS-based stack for mobile and web applications for frontend development. The backend was developed using Java, Spring and hibernate with Façade, Business delegate, and DTO design patterns. The server-side hosting was on a private cloud. The app built in React Native was deployed to Google pay and Apple store via Microsoft App Center. The project infrastructure managed by DevOps in CI/CD fashion while for backend operations Jenkins used as a CI/CD tool. Software configuration management is done using Github. JIRA has been used to manage product/sprint backlog in Kanban chart.

  • Effective administration and control over the marketplace for organizations and communities.

Sample Interview Questions


The solution helps in carrying out treatment plans as well as providing in house medications facilities to patients who cannot visit hospitals. Other features include:

  • Emergency push-button feature to help doctors operating in critical situations 
  • Keeping the UI/ UX clean and simple 
  • Integrated with digital health recording of patients 
  • Adding different communication capabilities 
  • Monitoring chronic conditions in patients

The basic idea of implementing this application is to abolish hospital visits for older and physically impaired people and make healthcare facilities more flexible. Our aim was to develop a community healthcare solution that helps in carrying out treatment plans as well as providing in house medications facilities to patients who cannot visit hospitals.

The app will help in carrying out treatment plans as well as providing in house medications facilities to elderly patients who cannot visit hospitals. It offers-

  • Connecting doctors with nursing staff, caregivers and patients for better coordination 
  • High availability of secure and scalable solution 
  • Treatment plans and medications for elderly and disabled patients 
  • Providing in-home medical facilities

The community healthcare solution eliminates the inconvenience of hospital visits caused to older and disabled people and helps them to avail healthcare facilities digitally via an app. This cross-platform app also allows doctors and nursing staff to view patients’ details in a standard format like PHR/ EMR.

 Some of the tech stacks used are- GitLab, ReactJS, Java, JIRA

Care.com, CareSmartz360, eCare21 are some similar apps.
