NURSING SUPPORT SYSTEM

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a nursing support system capable of efficiently creating process diagrams. SOLUTION: The nursing support system 20 includes a server 30 and a PC 60 which serves as a client. At the server 30, a temporary DB 40 records nursing data about a plurality of patients. A retrieval processing part 33 retrieves the temporary DB 40 for the nursing data about the plurality of patients for whom process diagrams are to be created. The retrieval processing part 33 extracts the nursing data according to a table where the items needed to create the process diagrams are indexed. The temporary DB 40 records the nursing data about the patients being hospitalized and the nursing data about the patients who are already released, in such a manner that the former data are separated from the latter data. The retrieval processing part 33 restricts a set of patients for retrieval to the patients being hospitalized. The process diagram creating part 64 of the PC 60 creates the process diagrams based on the nursing data obtained by the retrieval processing part 33. COPYRIGHT: (C)2007,JPO&INPIT
