Project Vision

Task

Background:

Tele-health can reduce socioeconomic demands by reducing travelling for face-to-face visits. Technology can be successfully applied in community-based patient care to enhance the capacity of nurses to deliver medications management for clients, resulting in increased efficiency of service delivery as well as staff and patient satisfaction. Tele-health in patients' homes supplements delivery of care, can reduce unplanned medical visits and improve self-management of an illness. Remote healthcare can supplement the delivery of care, providing support to clients and healthcare staff. For this project we are using the Tunstall tele-health monitoring equipment as an example of the type of equipment that is used. See the series of 2 minute videos on the following site to see what their current technology looks like for tablet interaction with older people: http://www.tunstallhealthcare.com.au/what-we-do/telehealth

The aim of the project is to improve the tablet computer interaction for the end-user of tele-health hardware and software in the homes of older people living in the community. We will assume that the community-dwelling older people live in regional, rural and remote locations in the central west of NSW. The solution involves a cloud-based mobile application, although you might also identify other possible delivery methods for the interaction.

You need to create a Project Vision Document which contains:

• Problem

• Capabilities

• Benefits

Specific analysis techniques have not been taught yet, so this assignment does not require technical descriptions.

Rationale

This assignment and the following two have been designed to allow students to test and demonstrate their topic understanding related to all of the learning outcomes for this subject. It is a single case study that is progressively tested in three related, yet independent, assessment tasks. The particular focus of the first assignment is on the following learning outcomes:

- the context of an information system;
- the processes in systems analysis;
- the approaches in systems analysis
