This project aims to help patients in efficiently finding and locating specific
medical experts. Patients may sometimes find the medical specialist they are seeking for
at a certain location (hospital) not to be of their liking. Past research has found that these
user preferences can influence in users not seeking medical treatment altogether.
Therefore, travelling from hospital to hospital without the ability to check on whom
users are trying to find in advance is essentially time-consuming; where in some cases,
the waste of time can lead to a much worse condition of their illness. The goal of this
project is to minimize effort and time consumption in physically searching for medical
experts at their respective hospital. The scope of this project is in the Kuala Lumpur
vicinity, with specific focus on government hospitals. Using a quantitative-research
method, a survey is developed for the purpose of data collection of the following; to
study on the preferences of patients. The mobile application incorporates the application
with a GPS-based application program such as Google Maps to ease users in locating
medical experts. Results of the findings have an overall influence on the mobile
application design itself, where future works will aim to further give improvement on
the design and development of the mobile application. |
