CARE2X Integrated Hospital Information System


In learning we often look in turn for role models, exemplars then even some comparator or examples against which to compare and contrast to understand the context and our own knowledge, skills and potential.

In health and social care information systems it's useful for me to look at what is available in Drupal. A recent find is Care2X with a demo available. There are numerous plans to take these systems further:

 Care3g is seeking funding.

There is also Project Mtuha.

There's a post by Tim Schofield - Helping African hospitals with open source software that describes how the enterprise resource planning system KwaMoja @KwaMoja is being used to provide administration systems for hospitals in Africa.

Even though not on the same scale as commercial hospital systems in the USA and EU ... these are significant software projects compared with my purposes which are educational.

NHS Hack Day Past & Future + HANDI health

Whether it's web magazines, web design sites, Drupal, or Ruby presentations you cannot escape from the app.

Health is no different being a major field of development. I did not make the NHS Hack Day in May and I may be away for the next in September 22-23th which is planned at ADA Liverpool. If you can make it register now!

There is also HANDI and no doubt a multitude of other international groups working on innovative apps that can and already are making a real difference to people's health and social care outcomes.
