Abstract

In the present paper we present the design of a system for the coordinated care of mentally-ill patients after their discharge to home using UML (Unified Modeling Language). UML is a general purpose modeling language in the field of software engineering. The goal of the system is to set an individual plan for the patient that qualifies for such a plan and agrees to joining such a home care program and to form the team that will support and monitor the patient after discharge from the hospital (nurse, psychiatrist, social worker etc). The CASE (Computer Assisted Software Engineering) tool we used to model the problem is the Visual Paradigm Suite.
