|  Have
you ever needed to reach an co-worker's
family - quickly?
Last
year, a scary thing happened here at the
Customer Paradigm office -- one of our newly-hired
programmers went into a grand mal seizure.
Scarry
stuff. The paramedics arrived quickly, and
while he was okay, he was pretty out of
it.
We
didn't have easy access to his emergency
contact information (it was locked in a
file cabinet and the person with the key
was out of the office). Thus
he was unable to tell us about his medical
history or give us a phone number of a loved
one to call and let them know he was in
the hospital.
A
PHP-based solution: Emergency Contact Information
System
As
we're a web-development organization, we
had the idea to create a web-based system
to prevent this from happening in the future.
We built a system where everyone's
emergency access information could be saved
into an online database. Anyone with proper
access codes could get to it quickly and
easily - and from anywhere there's an Internet
connection.
Here's
the login screen to retrieve emergency contact
information:
Once
into the system, the admin user can select
an employee and click to view each person's
contact information quickly and easily:
Here's
how the form looks to the employee, filling
out the form:
Download
this PHP script for your website.
Because
we know how helpful a system like this can
be, we are posting the php script and installation
file on our website for anyone to install
and use. (Just
think of us when you need a PHP application
built for your organization.) If
you'd like us to install it for you, or
customize it any way, please let us know.
Summary:
PHP
can be used for more than just displaying
web pages. This mini-application allows
you to keep employee's emergency contact
information accessible from any web browser.
