Problem Identification
Hospital visits are convenient and easy but can we say the same for older people as well? People with old age are more likely to experience certain medical conditions. The reason could be anything but they eventually want to get rid of the inconvenience of hospital visits. We aim to develop an application that helps in carrying out treatment plans as well as providing in-house medication facilities to elderly patients.
- Emergency tap feature for instant healthcare solution.
- Resident monitoring system for caregivers to operate.
- High availability of secure and scalable solution.
- Providing in-home medical facilities to older people.

Feasibility Study
On-call and shift overtime practices have greatly evolved over the years. The hospital management is aware of on-call requirements for hospital staff working in the elderly care division and dealing with obstetrical, home care, medical/ surgical, anesthesia care, and special care departments of hospitals. Therefore, an app that facilitates 24X7 special care to older people was needed to implement.
- Centralized database to access patient's electronic medical record.
- Enable punch in and out the facility for medical staff.
- Provided with a category of seeking medical approach.
- Allowing different communication capabilities.
- Patients to get an option to bookmark their favorite doctors.
Solution Implementation
User research
In order to define the specific goal for our healthcare communication app that also meets the client's expectations, it was needed to know the potential customers. This is why we carried out user research and understood what users who regularly going to use this app think about it.
Product discovery workshop
The primary objective of an application is to live up to the client’s expectations and serve users the purpose of what it is designed for. After carrying out user research, we held a discussion session with our client to know our competition, market opportunities, and the audience we are targeting through a product discovery workshop. This workshop session helped us understand more about the application such as what would be the features of the application, how to keep it more user-oriented etc.
While discussing technical aspects of the application, we came across anticipating critical business challenges that may come up during the development phase of the application and how we can surmount those challenges. By the end of a discovery workshop, we outlined business goals and objectives and streamline the entire development process.
Competitor Analysis
Conducting a competitive analysis before getting into the app development phase is important because it gives you an idea of your company’s advantage over its competitors and what customers are in need.
