SYSTEM ANALYSIS AND DESIGN
Introduction
Digital healthcare system has become an important need of recent times as it helps in
effective management of patients’ health. NewAccess is a similar project that targets the
mentally ill patients. Headspace is an organization that is interested in this new approach and a
project of developing NewAccess. Mental illness is often observed in youth of aged 17 to 25and
even in people as young as that of 12. The problem mainly arises as the young patients find it
really monotonous to re tell their story every time they visit a new healthcare practitioner. In
order to deal with the problem, a system is proposed that will ensure store the story of the young
patients at the first time it is being told so that the patients need not have to narrate their story
once again while visiting a different doctor (Coorevits et al., 2013). The problem, capabilities
and the benefits of this proposed project is elaborated in the following sections.
1. Problem
The problem is that the young patients who are suffering from the problem of mental
illness might find it difficult or boring to repeat their problem to the doctors every time they visit
to the a new doctor. It is normal for such patients to visit a series of doctors before getting the
required medical help. One patient might have to visit a caseworker of Headspace, staffs of
hospital emergency a general practitioner or a psychiatrist. While they are seeing a series of
doctors in a short span of time, they always need to re tell their problems and the medication
details to the doctors. It is observed that in the process of retelling the story, the patients often
clam up and tend to say a very little about their problems. This makes it difficult for the doctors
to understand their problems and offer them correct medications. As a result of this, the patients
may not always get the appropriate medication that they need. This is a huge problem in terms of
