CareSync: A Dual-Sided Mobile Application for Home Nurse Booking and Remote Elderly Care Monitoring

Abstract

As Information Technology is emerging in today’s world, we utilise many mobile technologies daily that ease our tasks in different sectors. One of them is in the home healthcare sector. The current problem is that families struggle to find professional homecare nurses for elderly care, while qualified nurses seek flexible alternatives to the rigid hospital schedules. This is the primary reason for developing a platform that facilitates flexible, yet professional home care. Based on this, it is necessary to create a system for providing verified professionals and transparent remote monitoring. This article introduces CareSync, a dual-sided mobile application that connects families with verified nurses through a centralised administrative system. CareSync connects families seeking home care for the elderly with verified nurses preferring flexible working hours. It also allows families to monitor their loved ones remotely, ensuring a secure, transparent, and professional home care ecosystem.
