Introduction

I have designed a system to be used in a medical centre. The medical centre at the moment uses a paper based system to store all its patients' details. The system is not able to cope with a dramatic increase of patients so will then require a computerised system to cope with the increase. The increase is due to a home estate being built in the village which will increase patient numbers. The system consists of some basic functions which are-

* The patient details - Which will include things such as the name, address, date of birth, telephone number and primary doctor.

* The staff details - this will include information such as staff code, name, address, phone number and also their role.

* The treatment details - this will include information such as patient ID, the date visited to the surgery, staff code and also the treatment which was received.

I have included a few extra features to make processing information quicker such as-

* When a name or number of patient is given, the patient's details will be bought up and also allows updates of their details.
