Open Hospital is a Health Information Management System designed to help hospitals, health centres, and care facilities manage day-to-day clinical and administrative work.
The software is aimed particularly at settings with limited resources and can be used to manage patient records, visits, admissions, medicines, laboratory results, vaccinations, births, and warehouse activity. It runs as a Java desktop application and can work either as a standalone portable installation or in a client/server configuration with multiple users sharing the same database. The project also maintains separate components for its core logic, Swing GUI, documentation, REST API, and web UI.
This is free and open source software.
