Maternal Care Mobile App

A mobile app for clinic staff and patients. The same client hired me to build it on the backend I'd made for them earlier in the year.

The problem

The dashboard kept care teams at a desk, but much of their work happens elsewhere, and many of the clinics they serve have unreliable internet. Once mothers went home, the care team also had no readings from them until the next visit.

The solution

I built a React Native app on the same backend. Staff can do their clinical work on a phone and keep recording when there's no signal; entries are stored encrypted on the device and sync when the connection returns. Patients get their own login to send home blood pressure readings from a Bluetooth monitor and record voice diaries. I also extended the backend with medication safety checks, urine, scan and growth tracking, and patient self-service, which the dashboard and the app both use.

The outcome

The client came back for this project after the dashboard. The app runs on the backend I built in January: I added new modules and migrations without deleting or rewriting any original code. I delivered it in two weeks, the same pace as the dashboard, with signed Android builds produced automatically on every release.

Key features

  • Encrypted offline recording that syncs when back online
  • Home blood pressure readings from Bluetooth Omron monitors
  • Patient login with home readings and voice diaries
  • Medication safety checks against clinical data
  • Works on locked-down kiosk devices
  • Dashboard and app available in 10 languages, including Arabic
