This blog will create Components, activities, Use Cases, and Sequence UML diagrams for the Hospital Management System. The application will help to manage the Hospital, Doctors, Receptionists, Appointments, and Patients.
UML Diagram for Hospital Management System
We’ve compiled two types of structural UML diagrams i.e. class and component diagrams, and three types of behavioral UML diagrams i.e. activity, sequence, and use case diagrams for the Hospital Management Project.
This application is a web platform to handle and manage all the activity and maintain and centralize a database about the hospital information that will be easily available with just one click on the web.
Component diagram for Hospital Management Project
The component diagram below shows the structural relations between components in an online Hospital Management System. The connected components by dotted lines represent relationships within the systems.
In the diagram, it can be seen that there total of six components name Patient, Appointment, Receptionist, Doctor, Appointment List, and Patient List.
Here, Admin can add/delete/edit Doctor details, and Receptionist details. Admin can view different users list. Doctors can view the appointment in the appointment and patients’ list. A receptionist can add/view the details of patients on the patient list. Admin can add/delete/edit appointments in the appointments list.
Activity diagram for Hospital Management Project
Activity diagrams in UML are a leading subset of behavioural diagrams. They display the functionalities of various activities and flows in management processes and software systems. The flow in the activity diagram can be sequential, branched, or concurrent.
Admin being the primary user, have to register on the system to carry out further operations of a Hospital. Admin will solely be responsible for adding receptionists, appointments, patients, and doctors. Admin can view the doctor list, appointments list, etc.
The Receptionist can log in and add/view patient details. Doctors can view appointments and patients list after logging in to the system.
Sequence diagram for Hospital Management Project
Sequence diagrams in UML are used to get a better idea of how tasks within a project will function, overlap, and move between objects or components. Sequence diagrams display step-by-step interactions between objects and the order in which those interactions occur.
Admin can add/delete/edit Doctor details, and Receptionist details. Admin can view different users list. Doctors can view the appointment in the appointment and patients’ list. A receptionist can add/view the details of patients on the patient list. Admin can add/delete/edit appointments in the appointments list.
Admin will be able to keep the records of all the medical history of patients. Details like name, address, photos, lab test reports, scans, diagnoses, and so on can be managed by the admin.
Use Case Diagram for Hospital Management Project
A UML use case diagram can create a broad, high-level view of the relationship between use cases, actors involved, and systems being performed.
As you can see from the examples below, use cases are represented by oval shapes, and the lines then show at which point an actor/user participates and interacts with their corresponding use case. We can see where each actor is involved within the entire process (and where they’re excluded).
Admin can access add/view doctor and doctor list use cases. Admin can access adds/view receptionist and receptionist list use cases. Admin can access adds/views patients and patients list use cases. Whereas the Receptionist can access add/view patient details use cases. Doctors can access view appointments and patients list use cases after logging in to the system.
DFD for Hospital Management Project
A data flow diagram represents the flow of information for any process or system. It shows the system with its relationship to external entities. Here, we can see how the pharmacists and the process flow work in a system.
Admin will solely be responsible for adding receptionists, appointments, patients, and doctors. Admin can view the doctor list, appointments list, etc. Admin can add/delete/edit Doctor details, and Receptionist details. Admin can view different users list. Doctors can view the appointment in the appointment and patients’ list. A receptionist can add/view the details of patients on the patient list. Admin can add/delete/edit appointments in the appointments list.
