Hospital software: 6 things to check before you pick a console
Last updated

Hospital software is easy to demo and harder to live with. Here are six things to check before you pick a self-hosted system, with DEV3 Pulsegrove as the worked example. Pulsegrove is built on the DEV3 ClinicPro engine: the same features, a different design.

1. Can you read the day from one screen?
Look for a wall of figures, a flow bar and the live queue together, not a page of menus.

2. Are departments easy to find?
A directory with filters and visible hours and fees saves phone calls.

3. Is the doctor directory searchable?
Patients should filter by department and search by name before booking.

4. Do lists stay readable with thousands of rows?
Check sticky headers, filters, column menus and exports on the patients table.

5. How does it handle several hospitals?
Separate teams, branding and currencies in one installation matter for groups; the manager console should show each site's day at a glance.












Modules — six capabilities laid out as a ruled spec grid.
