CareQuest - Medical Services Load Balancer

Overview

CareQuest was built during the early COVID-19 period when healthcare systems were overwhelmed and patients struggled to find available services. The platform acts as an intelligent load balancer - routing patients to the nearest and most available medical facilities in real time.

Features

• Real-time tracking of medical service availability across facilities
• Intelligent routing based on proximity, capacity, and service type
• Integration with multiple healthcare service APIs
• Full-stack architecture with a Node.js backend and React frontend
• MongoDB for facility data and patient request tracking

Context

This was one of my earlier larger full-stack projects, built under time pressure with a focus on practical impact during the pandemic. It was a significant step in my web development journey before I moved into systems and data engineering.
