The hospital recommendation list according to the embodiments may be sorted by assigning scores according to distances, star points, and congestion levels to hospitals located within a preset distance. For example, the server scores an integer out of 1 to 5 for each of how close the distance is (distance), how high the star rating is (star rating), and how relaxed the hospital is now (congestion). It can be sorted through the sum of the scores of all congestion levels. For example, if the distance from the second device is closer, 5 points may be given, and if the distance is further, 1 point may be given. The more relaxed, 5 points, and the more crowded the hospital, 1 point. Also, the server may sort through the sum of scores excluding at least one of distance, star point, and congestion. In this case, the excluded score may be selected by the user. That is, in the case of a user who intends to go to receive treatment even if the distance is far, after selecting only the star rating and the congestion level, the hospital recommendation list may be obtained by adding the star rating and the congestion level.

In the hospital recommendation list according to embodiments, among hospitals within a preset distance based on the location of the second device, if there is a previously visited hospital that has received a hospital selection command from the second device, the previously visited hospital is the top It may be a list of recommendations for hospitals placed in .

FIG. 6A illustrates a state in which a user and a companion animal are separated by a preset distance or more in a hospital recommendation method according to embodiments.

As shown in FIG. 6A , the user 603 and the companion animal 602 may be spaced apart from each other by a predetermined distance or more. The server (eg, the server described in FIGS. 1 to 5 ) according to the embodiments determines whether the user 603 and the companion animal 602 are spaced apart by a predetermined distance or more from the first device 620 (eg, For example, it may be determined through the first device described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 5 ) and the second device 630 (for example, the second device described with reference to FIGS. 1 to 5 ). That is, the server, the first device 620 through the location information of the first device 620 received from the first device 620 and the location information of the second device 630 received from the second device 630 . ) and the second device 630 may determine whether they are separated by a predetermined distance or more.

As shown in (A) of Figure 6, the server according to the embodiments, when it is determined that the first device 620 and the second device 630 are more than a preset distance, the server is a hospital recommendation list (eg, For example, before generating the hospital recommendation list described in FIGS. 1 to 5 ), the hospital recommendation command received from the second device 630 (eg, the hospital recommendation command described in FIGS. 2 and 4 to 5 ) Correspondingly, a guardian list 631 that is a guardian list within a preset distance from the first device 620 may be generated. The guardian list 631 may include guardians who are registered on the server while being within a preset distance from the first device 620 , and may include guardians who can take care of companion animals right away. In this case, the preset distance may be determined according to the distance between the companion animal 602 and the user 603 , and for example, the server may set the distance between the companion animal 602 and the user 603 rather than the distance between the companion animal 602 and the user 603 . A distant guardian may not be included in the guardian list 631 . For example, when the distance between the companion animal 602 and the user 603 is 1 km or more, which is a preset distance, the server may generate the guardian list 631 . The server may generate a guardian list 631 including the companion animal 602 and the guardian 601 within a distance of 5 km.

FIG. 6B illustrates a state in which the second device 630 receives the guardian list 631 from the server in the hospital recommendation method according to the embodiments.

As shown in FIG. 6B , the second device 630 may output the guardian list 631 received from the server on the display unit. However, the present invention is not limited thereto, and the guardian list 631 may be output as voice data through an audio unit. The guardian list 631 may include guardians located within a preset distance from the first device 620 . The guardian list may include a distance from the first device 620 , a usage fee of the guardian, a rating, and the like. For example, as shown in (B) of Figure 6, the guardians included in the guardian list may be A, B, and C. A, B, and C may be located 200 m, 421 m, and 569 m away from the first device, respectively. Based on this, the guardian list may sort A, B, and C in order of distance.

The guardian list 631 according to embodiments may sort guardians in order of distance based on the distance between the first device 620 and the guardians.

The guardian list 631 according to embodiments may be arranged in order of rating indicating the use ratings of guardians located within a preset distance.

The guardian list 631 according to embodiments may be arranged in the order of hourly wages based on the hourly wages of guardians located within a preset distance.

The guardian list 631 according to the embodiments may be arranged so that the guardian with the previous use record is placed at the top.

The guardian list 631 according to embodiments may be arranged by giving points according to distance, star point, and price to guardians located within a preset distance. For example, the server scores an integer from 1 to 5 for each of how close the distance is (distance), how high the star rating is (star point), and whether the price is reasonable (price), and the distance, star point, and price of all You can sort through the sum of the scores. In this case, each score may be determined according to a preset criterion or evaluation. For example, a closer distance from the first device 620 may give 5 points, and a distance from the first device 620 may give 5 points, and a higher user satisfaction may give 5 points, and a lower satisfaction may give 1 point. , 5 points for a lower price and 1 point for a higher price. In addition, the server may sort through the sum of scores excluding at least one of distance, star point, and price. In this case, the excluded score may be selected by the user. That is, in the case of a user who thinks that the guardian will entrust it to the guardian even if the price is high, the guardian list 631 may be acquired by selecting only the distance and the asterisk points, and then summing the distance and asterisk scores.

In addition, as the guardian list 631 according to the embodiments receives a weight request for any one or more of distance, star point, and price from the second device 630, at least one of distance, star point, and price may be sorted with weights included. For example, if guardians A, B, and C have distances of 5, 4, and 3, respectively, they have 3, 3, and 3 stars, and their prices have 4, 5, and 4 points, A , B, and C may be 12 points, 12 points, and 11 points, respectively. However, if a request is received from the second device to put a weight of 2 on the distance and a weight of 1 on the star rating and the price, the sum of the scores of guardians A, B, and C will be 17, 16, and 14, respectively. can Accordingly, the guardian recommendation list 631 may be arranged in the order of guardians A, B, and C.

The user may select a guardian on the output guardian list 631 and transmit the user's selection result to the server through the second device 630 .

According to the hospital recommendation method according to the embodiments, even when the user is far away from the companion animal, it is possible to take the companion animal to the hospital in a timely manner without requiring a separate person to take care of the companion animal.
