This is the one I have read a bit about. I don't know how it compares to other systems, but it was designed to be robust and reliable under extremely difficult circumstances, including being usable off-line. I was going to post it if no one else had.

I added the edit, but what do you mean use case? did i answer it or is there more to it? let me know, was just looking for something to modernize the work as much as possible and switch away from excel or access that is used at the moment, oh and also paper :)
That is helpful but I have some more questions: - Are you looking for a system to maintain a clinical history for each patient that you see? In this case, you would need an EHR system - Are you looking for some sort of practice management system to help with scheduling, billing, registration, etc? - Does your ER need a Lab Information Management system? - Do you need software to manage bed utilization? - Do you need…
Great questions,
1. yes would be great
2. if possible
3. there are not that many cases to be honest thankfully, the place is not that big
4. not really, this is more of a local thing, i am not from US but imagine if there was a City with people also living in the areas around the city,
sometimes we send doctors to those areas to check on the elderly or even kids, so when i mentioned if the system could distribute in a way or be cloud hosted, it would help with these patients
open source, it would be cheap and as a way of proof of concept, I cant say that we are a 1st world country and the project is also a community effort
this is public health so there is no real need for money making, docs and services are tax paid, but they still suffer from systems in place,
makes tracking patients and previous visits a pain, you dont know alergies or similar things, you need to try and find the records if they have them, sometimes its just on paper :)
hope this helps

It sounds like HospitalRun would work for you, someone in another post gave a link to it.
OpenHospital might be another option: https://sourceforge.net/projects/openhospital/
Also NOSHEMR looks interesting https://noshemr.wordpress.com/live-demonstration/
