Finding the right hospital in an emergency should take seconds, not hours.
A healthcare navigation Android app for Patiala, Punjab — designed to help people locate the right hospital quickly during medical emergencies.
When someone has a medical emergency in Patiala, families often lose critical time searching for the right hospital. They don't know:
- Which hospital has the specialist they need
- Which hospital is closest to their current location
- Which departments are available at each hospital
- Contact information for emergency wards
That delay can cost lives. HospitalHub aims to solve that.
- 📍 Shows nearby hospitals in Patiala with locations
- 🏥 Displays available departments and specialties
- 📞 Provides contact numbers and emergency helplines
- 🗺️ Helps users navigate to the right hospital quickly
- 🇮🇳 Simple, clear interface designed for stressful situations
🚧 In active development — building core screens and navigation flow
Progress:
- Problem research and validation
- Repository setup
- UI design and wireframes
- Core screen development
- Hospital data collection for Patiala
- Backend integration
- Beta testing with local users
- Public release

I'm an MCA student from Cheeka, Haryana, currently studying at Punjabi University, Patiala. I've seen families struggle firsthand during medical emergencies — driving to the wrong hospital, calling around, wasting precious minutes.
I'm not building HospitalHub to add a project to my resume. I'm building it because this problem is real, and I believe even a beginner with the right intention can build something that matters.
If even one family reaches the right hospital faster because of this app, it will have been worth every hour I put into it.
This project is open to collaboration.
If you're from Patiala and know hospitals I should include, or if you're a developer who wants to help build this — please open an issue or reach out.
