Remove hardcoded passwords 2. Implement JWT token-based authentication 3. Use environment variables for sensitive data 4. Add rate limiting for login attempts 5. Implement password hashing (bcrypt) 6. Add audit logging for all actions 7. Use HTTPS only 8. Implement session timeout ## 📊 Chat History Storage ### Format Chat history is stored in `.chat_history.json`: ```json { "nurse": [ {"role": "user", "content": "What is person-centered care?"}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "...response..."} ], "clinician": [ {"role": "user", "content": "...question..."}, {"role": "assistant", "content": "...response..."} ] } ``` ### Backup Recommendations - Regularly backup `.chat_history.json` - Consider implementing database storage for large-scale deployments - Add encryption for stored conversations ## 🎯 Future Enhancements ### Planned Features 1. **Database Integration**: Replace JSON storage with PostgreSQL/MongoDB 2. **Advanced Analytics**: Dashboard with usage statistics 3. **Audit Logging**: Track all user actions for compliance 4. **Multi-tenancy**: Support multiple organizations 5. **API Layer**: REST API for programmatic access 6. **Mobile App**: React Native mobile application 7. **Real-time Collaboration**: Multiple users viewing same chat 8. **AI-powered Suggestions**: Contextual recommendations 9. **Document Upload**: Process patient documents directly 10. **FHIR Integration**: Direct integration with FHIR resources ## 📝 User Roles Explained ### Nurse Role - Access to clinical validation - Can view and export chat history - Intended for frontline nursing staff ### Clinician Role - Access to clinical validation - Can view chat history (no export) - Intended for physicians and specialist staff ### Admin Role - All permissions - User management capabilities - System configuration access - Intended for system administrators ## 🆘 Troubleshooting ### Issue: Chat history not loading - Check if `.chat_history.json` exists - Verify file permissions - Ensure JSON is valid ### Issue: Knowledge base offline - Run `python ingest_fast.py` to rebuild database - Check if `chroma_db_fons` directory exists - Verify Azure OpenAI credentials ### Issue: Login fails - Verify credentials match those in `DEFAULT_USERS` - Check for typos in username/password - Try refreshing the page ## 📞 Support For issues, questions, or feature requests, please open an issue on GitHub: https://github.com/ClinyQAi/open-nursing-core-ig/issues
