patient tracking

description

The BC Children's Hospital Patient Tracking project gave us the opportunity to work directly with BCCH to create a proposal for a streamlines patient tracking system. To accomplish this we visited the facility, interviewed the staff and collected information about their current systems.

My contribution to the project was to research the potential uses of RFID tags in a patient authentication system. After learning about the technology and interviewing BCCH staff and Provincial Government representatives, I put together a proposal for implementing the system, and built a working demo that used passive RFID tags to log in to a lightweight web-based authentication system.
