Java Swing + MySQL hospital patient management system

JavaSwingJDBCMySQL

About this project

Pakenham Hospital PMS is a desktop application that digitises the front desk of a hospital. Staff and patients log in through role-specific screens; reception can enrol new patients, book and manage appointments, and generate patient wristbands, with everything persisted to a MySQL database in real time over JDBC. It's a self-contained tour of building a stateful, database-backed desktop app in pure Java.

The interface is built with Java Swing — hand-laid forms, tables and dialogs — while a dedicated database-connection layer keeps the SQL access in one place. Because the repository ships the compiled application (the .class files) rather than the raw source, the README here documents the system's features and design; the source is available on request.

Highlights

Role-based login flows for reception, doctors and patients.
Patient enrolment, appointment booking and automatic wristband generation.
Real-time persistence to MySQL through a dedicated JDBC connection layer.
Built entirely in Java Swing — forms, tables and dialogs, no web stack.
