About this project

This is a Django 4.0 (django rest framework) project written in python 3.11.0, with a postgresql database. It (will) create a versioned database of all hospitals in the UK, updated periodically from the Organisation Data Service. This information in turn will be checked for accuracy with NHS clinicians across the UK to maintain accuracy. It will run as a service.
