Luckily, people will understand down time due to a hurricane.. not too worried about a few minutes of data loss - I have a way to recover in case there is a loss... when anything in this patient registry is added or updated, I send an email to my gmail account with the old and new data (encrypting any person info)... so if worst case happens, I can manually go back and fix things.
