THE AUTOMATION OF PATIENTS’ RECORDS KEEPING SYSTEM FOR HEALTH CLINICS. CASE STUDY GROUND: MATTER DEI CLINIC

Abstract

Patient’s record management systems in hospital/clinic today are necessary for optimum hospital/clinic administration. When handling patients, generating various health reports, patient details or data serves as a key factor for the flow of transactions in health centres and it is better when it is automated or computerized. Unfortunately the paper-based Record management system leads to delay and hence late release of reports and insecurity to records. This research project is aimed at automating all the records on patients and staff in health clinics. In order to achieve this goal, a thorough System Study was carried out. Information was gathered and analyzed about the current or existing system. Data flow diagrams and flowcharts were used to model the system.
