This project was created for the Nursing Department faculty at Algonquin College. The goal of this project was to create a digital and more cohesive way for the faculty to book out rooms and equipment. The client wanted a website that would make it easier for the Nursing Lab Technologist to order equipment and be able to deliver the proper equipment to the labs on the right day. The requisition allows nursing faculty to fill out what they need for a specific day, the quantity of each item, as well as it allows them to save a PDF version to their computer. They can upload these PDFs to the website to make edits to the requisition instead of starting over each time they need to book a lab. When they submit the form they get an email confirmation and the Nursing Lab Technologist gets emailed a link to a PDF of the requisition.
My team and I met with the Nursing Lab Technologist and the Coordinator of the Nursing Department to better understand what the end goal was for this project. We met many times in the process of creating this project to make sure it was what the client envisioned. We also did user testing with the other faculty to make sure it was easy for them to use. We made many tweaks to make sure the requisition made sense to all that was using it.
This was a project started in the summer of 2014. The project took a year to finish. I created the general design of the website using HTML and CSS, as well as worked on the database using PHP, MySQL, and Workbench.
