o Room - Patient: Rooms are assigned to Patients upon admission.
o Doctor - Department: Doctors are associated with specific Departments.
o Hospital Staff - Department: Hospital Staff are assigned to Departments.
o Administrator: Administrators oversee hospital management but do not directly relate
to other entities in the operational sense.
3. Entity-Relationship Diagram (ERD):
In the ERD:
o Each entity is represented as a rectangle.
o Primary keys are underlined.
o Relationships are depicted using lines connecting related entities, with cardinality (1
,N
) and participation constraints (total participation, partial participation) where
applicable.

Conclusion:
This ERD captures the essential entities, attributes, and relationships required for a Hospital
Management System as described in the scenario. It visualizes how patients, doctors, medical
records, appointments, rooms, and staff interact within the system, facilitating effective patient
care and operational management.
