Development Project Stakeholder Map for Youth Mental Health

This project analyzes the development of a National Youth Mental Health Foundation, focusing on stakeholder mapping, patient assessment, and system design. It begins with an examination of internal and external stakeholders, including healthcare case workers, administrative staff, clinicians, and patients, along with the roles and responsibilities of each group. A questionnaire is presented to gather information about patient problems, health history, and personal relationships to aid in developing individualized healthcare plans. The project also includes use case diagrams illustrating interactions within the system, such as new patient intake, family member inquiries, and emergency service scenarios. A sample use case description provides a detailed scenario of a patient requiring emergency care, outlining the process from initial contact with a case worker to clinician examination and treatment recommendations. The project references several scholarly articles to support its analysis and recommendations.

Internal External
Operationa
l
Healthcare case worker: This person’s job is
to receive the new cases and assess their basic
physical and psychological status. Report the
background information to the health care
service providers and maintain the critical
health records of each inmate using the new
system (Fedder, , Chang, Curry, & Nichols,
2003)
Administrative staff: This staff must fulfil
the administrative requirements of managing
the inmates and the outpatient visits such as
the name, address, demographic information,
service records, etc.
Clinician: Assesses diagnoses and
recommend therapy for each youth enrolled
for the rehabilitation program or treatment.
The clinician also evaluates the progress of
the treatment for further recommendations
Social worker: The social
workers in the field provide
community specific data to
the health centre so that the
institution can orient its ices
to serve the critical health
needs of the community.
Support institutions: The
government and
professional bodies
associated with healthcare,
provide macro information,
policy guidelines and
funding support to enrich
the health care services
Executive Technical Staff: Technical staff would
implement the therapies and schedules
recommended by the clinicians. They carry
out the most critical activities and outcomes
of health care largely depend on their work
(Mancini, 2016)
Management: The management is
responsible for setting up infrastructure for
the care services and creating health care
policies for the youth health foundation
Patient/ Family: The
inmates, outpatients and
their families have to
participate and cooperate
and provide feedback and
suggestions to the operative
and executive staff
Service providers and
Suppliers: These includes,
medicine suppliers,
specialists, visiting doctors,
equipment service
providers, etc. who supports
the functioning of the care
centre
Questionnaire

Use Case Diagram
Use case model
(Funk, 2005)
Use cases
Use Case 1: When a new user approaches the health case worker at the care foundation, the
relevant details are gathered from the user and maintained in the information system (Jones,
Rudin, Perry, & Shekelle, 2014). Depending on the needs of the new user, the health worker
assigns the case to the appropriate department such as emergency service, diagnostics, etc.

Use case 2: When a family member of the user contacts the health case worker regarding the
health service, the worker gathers basic information from the member and maintains them in
the new IT system developed. On arrival of the user, the worker further examines the patient
and updates other relevant information needed for the health service. After this process the
incoming patient is assigned to the appropriate department (Marakas & Marakas, 2007).
Use Case 3: When a new patient with minor symptoms approaches the health case worker in
the health foundation, after gathering the basic information, the user is assigned to the
available clinician. The clinicians transcripts are then stored in the computer for further
access.
Use Case 4: When a family member enrols a new patient with minor symptoms, the health
case worker collects basic information and assigns a clinician to examine the new comer. On
completion of the service by the clinician, the patient is either released or retained in the
centre for further service (World Health Organization, 2015). All the relevant data regarding
the health service will be recorded and maintained in the new system.
Use Case 5: When a registered patient approaches the health case worker, after retrieving the
relevant information, the incoming patient is assigned to the emergency department. The
emergency department, based on the previous records and patient health status, administers
the health service and update the health records in the computer.
Use Case 6: When a patient revisits the health worker for a follow up, the health professional
examines the progress and records the present status of the patients Depending on the health
condition of the outpatient, the health care user is assigned to an appropriate department
(Vourlekis, 2017). The medical officers in the respective departments will decide the course
of action and the details are entered into the computer (Curtis & Cobham, 2013).
Use Case 7: When the parent of a minor child approaches the health worker regarding the
conditions of the patient, the health worker access the records and update the reports
presented by the parent. The parent’s concern will be notified to the appropriate department
for further action.
A sample use case description
Scenario: A patient undergoing medication has not progressed due to the ineffective drug,
and the present condition of the patient demands an emergency care.
Triggering Event: Patient approaches the case worker and reports general uneasiness, pains in
certain part of the body and difficulty to carry out normal activities (Weaver, Ball, Kim, &
Kiel, 2016).
Brief Description of the process: The patient along with the relevant records approaches the
health care worker. The worker accesses the appropriate records from the computer and
allows an appointment for examination. During the consulting meeting, the health worker
checks health records, examine the current condition of the patient and create a
recommendation to an appropriate department. Depending on the schedules of the
department, the patient is given an appointment for health services. After the examination by

the clinician in the concerned department, the health records of the patient are updated
(Lavin, Harper, & Barr, 2015).
Actors: Patient, Case Worker, clinician in the assigned department
Associated use Cases: Use Case 3 is appropriate for the above scenario where the care worker
assigns a clinician to the incoming patient.
Preconditions: The patient must be registered with the care institution and has undergone a
treatment. For a new patient, this use case will not be appropriate.
