    (Kampala international international : School of computing and Information technology, 2009-07) Kapere, Majorie
    The manual records kept by Desire Medical Center were pathetic and worrying that was due to poor management of patients’ files and the departments that were in charge. Computerized systems have been a vital aspect in the success of most organizations and Records Management System were developed to store, retrieve and manage the patients’ data. The patients have membership cards that identify them at the Medical Center. The membership cards quickened the process of data entry into the system, accessing and manipulation of data. This enabled Desire Medical Center to have its patients’ reference records updated. The objective of the project was to design and implement a records management system. It would store various information about the patients, the Doctor and Staff members that handled particular patients. The methodology used to achieve this was System development Life Cycle. The investigation process collected information about requirements and were analyzed. The use of this system in the organization indicated that the problems it faced earlier were minimized and created a conducive environment for managing the patients’ records.
