Introduction
Problem Statement
Headspace faced with the problem where a mental health patient needs to retell a story
every time they visit a different medical professional. Patients tend to get clammed up and get
bored telling the same story very time. As such Headspace needs a system that keeps track of the
patient’s medical record every time he/she visits a medical professional. This system will solve
the problem of having the patient retell the story and can get better assistance because the
medical practitioner can be able to see the previous medical records and history of the patient.
System Capabilities
The NewAccess system will function like a typical Electronic Health Record system.
According to Rey (2015) adopting such a system will have the following key capabilities:
 Store and identify patient record
 Monitor and control demographics of the patient
 Manage the list of problems
 Maintain history of the patient
 Manage list of medication given to the patient
 Maintain clinical notes and documents
 Provide guidelines, care plans, and protocols.
 Generate on-demand patient report

care for the mental patients by:

 Ability to share patient information electronically with other medical professionals
securely.
 Help medical professionals to diagnose patients more effectively and minimizing medical
errors.
