When a patient who is in dire need of medical attention, in some cases the patient is left to endure
his/her pain as the nurse starts frantically searching for his/her file or other scenarios a patient might
be given wrong medication because the person on duty could have been exhausted and written in the
wrong information for the patient. This is where a hospital management system shines.

The Hospital management system is easy to use, flexible and is developed to deliver considerable
benefits to hospitals.

The Hospital Management system includes registration of patients, storing their details into the system,
The software has the facility to give a unique id for every patient and stores the details of every patient
and the staff automatically. The doctor has the ability to check his appointments online, can search for
a particular patient,. The patients can check their medical history and book appointments.

The system provides important information for both the patients and the medical personnel ensuring
effective decision making. It also improves the management of hospital therefore improving the overall
quality of work and its effectiveness.
