Background

As a pharmaceutical professional pursuing a post-graduate degree in Oncological Hospital Pharmacy, we recognized the need for better patient care and management. We observed that patients with cancer often face multiple challenges such as medication adherence, side effects, and drug interactions. These issues lead to poor health outcomes and reduced quality of life for patients.

Problem

The lack of proper patient care and management in oncology hospitals was a significant challenge. Patients were not receiving adequate support to manage their medications, leading to poor health outcomes. Additionally, healthcare professionals were struggling to keep track of patients' medication regimens, leading to increased workload and decreased efficiency.

Solution

To address these challenges, we developed an innovative patient care management system that leveraged technology to improve patient outcomes. The system included features such as medication reminders, drug interaction alerts, and side effect tracking. It also provided healthcare professionals with real-time access to patients' medication regimens, enabling them to provide better care.
