Tiivistelmä
The purpose of this thesis was to implement a hospital management software which is suitable for small private hospitals in Nigeria, especially for the ones that use a file based system for storing information rather than having it stored in a more efficient and safer environment like databases or excel programming software. The software developed within this thesis project was specifically designed for the Rainbow specialist hospital which is based in Lagos, the commercial neurological center of Nigeria.
The thesis firstly gave an overview of the different types of software development models that could be used for developing hospital management software. The models considered in this thesis were the Waterfall model, the iterative and incremental models, the V-shape model and the Spiral model. Therefore, the most relevant aspects of these models were presented.
The system development part was then considered, explaining some modules and the human interface with which a user can interact with the software to store or get information from the database. The software system itself and appendices contain the screenshots of the human interface after the completion of the system.
Microsoft visual studio 2010 and Microsoft SQL server management studio were used in developing the user interface and the database for the software.
