Use Case Models for KUTRRH(Kenyatta University Teaching Research and Referral Hospital) UML

To create a use case model for a referral hospital, you can follow these steps:

1. Identify Actors:

Patients
Doctors
Nurses
Receptionists
Billing Staff
Administrators

2. Identify Use Cases:

Patient Registration
Schedule Appointment
Refer Patient
Conduct Consultation
Manage Medical Records
Billing and Payment
Discharge Patient
Order Tests
Access Test Results

3. Draw the Use Case Diagram:

Using UML notation, represent the identified actors and use cases.

Example Structure:

Place actors outside the system boundary (a rectangle).
Draw ovals for each use case within the system boundary.
Connect actors to the use cases they interact with using lines.

Sample Diagram (Textual Representation):

          +-------------------+
          |  Referral Hospital |
          |                   |

          |   +-------------+ |
          |   +-------------+ |
          |   | Nurse       | |
          |   +-------------+ |
          |   +-------------+ |
          |   | Receptionist | |
          |   +-------------+ |
          |   +-------------+ |
          |   | Billing Staff | |
          |   +-------------+ |
          |   +-------------+ |
          |   | Administrator | |
          |   +-------------+ |
          |                   |
          +-------------------+

          Use Cases:
          - Patient Registration
          - Schedule Appointment
          - Refer Patient
          - Conduct Consultation
          - Manage Medical Records
          - Billing and Payment
          - Discharge Patient
          - Order Tests
          - Access Test Results

4. Describe Interactions:

Patients interact with registration and appointment scheduling.
Doctors refer patients, conduct consultations, and access medical records.
Nurses assist in patient care and manage records.
Receptionists handle patient registration and appointment scheduling.
Billing Staff manage billing processes.
Administrators oversee the overall functioning of the hospital system.

Conclusion:

This diagram serves as a foundation for understanding how different roles interact with various functionalities within a referral hospital. You can use UML software (like Lucidchart, Visual Paradigm, or draw.io) to create a polished version of this diagram.
