Business Needs
Setting the example for others to follow

The client requested a design for a database for use within the Queen Elizabeths Foundation (QEF) on a daily basis. It should be based on and around mainly the information on the QEFs clients. It needs to hold information on the activities the client enrols in, any after hours activities they may take part in, a register to keep track of clients present and absent during the day, next of kin information, invoices, their care-manager(s), any treatment they may be having, whether or not they need treatment while at the centre, Any referrals, e.g., from their doctor, from an employee, referrals to another organisation, e.g., the job centre or a care home. The client informed us that employee information for payroll purposes is already stored securely on a separate database that they did not want linked. For this reason this information is not modelled.

Explanation of possible ambiguous entities

Setting the example for others to follow

PROHIBITED LIST ENTRY in an emergency employees may be

required to be able to reference prohibited combinations of drugs for individual clients DEALING each time a care manager is assigned to a client FIRST AID SESSION the attendance to minor wounds and injuries, any thing larger, is passed onto the emergency services, medication cannot be administered at such times Advanced Modelling

A basket was chosen to resolve the issue of having multiple

treatment types comprising a treatment course. Thus allowing a treatment to consist of one or more treatment types.

Assumptions
Setting the example for others to follow

A CARE MANAGER can have one or more clients The database has expanded so we have included TUTOR and

EMPLOYEE If the CLIENT lives within a 3 mile radius of the centre they must provide their own TRANSPORT i.e. CLIENT PROVIDED. If not as above, thus living outside the 3 mile radius have TRANSPORT provided by the centre i.e. CENTRE PROVIDED they are collected from their homes. A PRESCRIPTION is only for medication, Physiotherapy is prescribed via a REFERRAL. MEDICATION is not given during a first aid session unless in the case of an emergency. PROSCRIBED LIST ENTRY will only be used in the case of an emergency to reference prohibited drug combinations.
Slide: 08/10

Assumptions
Setting the example for others to follow

Notes in CLIENT entity contain objectives, care needs &

comments. Requirements in CENTRE PROVIDED entity are special needs, i.e., wheelchair user. A DOCTOR must authorise any treatment courses a CLIENT undertakes. An INVOICE bills the CLIENT for sessions taken and missed at the centre. Each CLIENT must enrol in each ACTIVITY. Records are kept of clients whom have left the centre.

Overall Summary

Setting the example for others to follow

We have constructed a conceptual model based on the information given to us upon our visit to Ms Debbie Saunders and her team at the Queen Elizabeths Foundation in Dartford, Kent. Communications have ensued between ourselves and the charity on a regular basis. The concept model shown is not our first draft, since though we still wait for clarification on a number of assumptions, those which have been checked and approved are now incorporated into our model. We have made an appointment, when our team will present back our model to the customer for final approval and eventual implementation. Ms Debbie Saunders estimated that if taken up this project would save the charity in excess of 2000 compared with commercial quotes they had received. We would like to take this time to thank Ms Debbie Saunders and her team for their help and co-operation throughout.
