In the interests of the medical clinic I wonder what packages are
already out there that lead or support standards in EMR
<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_medical_record>and for a
successful project how one would best align one's goals with theirs?

Point well taken about esoteric and cool versus pragmatic and well worn. The
most certain route in software, like in most undertakings, is usually the
familiar. The problem with the familiar is that many on the list, including
those of us who are ourselves well worn (at least worn), are enamored with
(might I go as far as to say addicted?) to the cool and esoteric, whether it be
software tech, complexity science, philosophy, politics... So, I'm not just
looking for a solution, I'm looking for a fix :-) However, I was honest with
my stakeholders and let them know that I'm being a bit selfish, in that I'm not
doing this not just for them, but for me, using it as a justification for
spending the time to learn some new stuff. The easiest implementation would
likely be a traditional two-tier client server system, with the GUI and
application logic done with Visual Basic talking to a MySQL server. Nothing
wrong with that, maybe I'll even consider it when I grow up :-)

Then you might consider who's going to maintain it when your not available and
what level of skill may be needed. Esoteric and cool is... well esoteric and
cool. Pragmatic and well worn and well known might lead you to consider more
mundane but well used tools especially on the server side like PHP and MySQL
and perhaps WordPress and the thousands of themes and plugins. Many WP themes
are responsive/mobile friendly right out of the box saving tons of work - some
premium some free.
Thanks
