MediCare+ is a clinical design system for hospital portals and patient management systems. It prioritizes clarity, trust, and error prevention above all else. The calming blue palette is intentionally sterile — evoking the reliability of medical-grade environments. Standard density ensures that forms, data tables, and patient records are legible without ambiguity. Every component is designed with accessibility as a non-negotiable requirement (WCAG AA minimum), large touch targets for bedside tablets, and clear visual hierarchy that prevents critical misreadings.

Do's & Don'ts

Do

Meet WCAG AA contrast ratios (4.5:1 body text, 3:1 large text) at minimum — aim for AAA where possible.
Make all interactive elements at least 44px touch target size for bedside tablet use.
Always pair color-coded status indicators with text labels and icons — never rely on color alone.
Prefix required form fields with a visible asterisk and provide clear validation messages before submission.
Use IBM Plex Mono for all medical record numbers, codes, and dosage values to prevent misreading.
Provide high-contrast focus indicators on every interactive element for keyboard and assistive device navigation.

Don't

Use red for anything other than errors, critical alerts, and destructive actions — misuse creates alarm fatigue.
Use low-contrast grays for important data — patient safety depends on every value being immediately legible.
Auto-dismiss important notifications — critical medical information must require manual acknowledgment.
Use placeholder text as a substitute for labels — labels must always be visible and persistent.
