Abstract

Our Android application, ClickHealth, helps the homeless locate the nearest health care facilities to help treat their health needs. There were two stages to developing the app: researching/planning and developing. Our app has numerous features including a Google Maps view, markers which show the closest hospitals and drugstores, info pages about hospitals, and a favorites tab. ClickHealth provides all important information about each hospital in a convenient fashion, and without using too much data. ClickHealth will help reduce the number of homeless who are in need of health care because of the way it guides users to facilities that accept walk-in patients and allow appointments to be made over the phone.

ClickHealth,一个为无家可归者提供医疗保健信息的应用程序
我们的Android应用程序ClickHealth可以帮助无家可归者找到最近的医疗机构,以帮助满足他们的健康需求。开发应用程序有两个阶段:研究/计划和开发。我们的应用程序有许多功能,包括谷歌地图视图、显示最近的医院和药店的标记、关于医院的信息页面和收藏夹选项卡。ClickHealth以方便的方式提供有关每家医院的所有重要信息,而无需使用太多数据。ClickHealth将有助于减少需要医疗保健的无家可归者的数量,因为它可以引导用户前往接受预约病人的设施,并允许通过电话进行预约。
