Hospital Finder

By Matt, Laurence, Tom and Arran

The Problem!

You often get a choice of where you are treated, but it can be difficult to choose

It is hard to compare in order to make an informed decision

Our solution: Hospital Finder!

It is a web app which allows you to:

Search for Hospitals in a specified area Find your closest hospital (entered post code) Compare Services using ratings Compare the A&E waiting times

How did we use open data?

Hospital ratings and reviews (NHS) Safety ratings (NHS) Services provided & contact details (CQC) Location Search (Geonames) Lat./Long. For postcodes (uk-postcodes.com)

The Code? SQLite database Python Flask (Micro framework) Bootstrap (responsive) Javascript/html (map, list, barcharts) Libraries:

SQLalchemy Requests Flask JQuery D3.js Google Maps API

In The Future…

Global data for other countries Data for Pharmacies, dentists and opticians Mobile UI Identify real-time Datasets
