Abstract :
This study aims to implement a data
management system that connects three regional
hospitals and shares patient information to improve the
services provided to patients, especially those treated in
Kigali city. When the patient arrives, apart from what is
written on the transfer sheet, there is no information
about the illness, even though the patient had been
hospitalized at the district hospital for many months.
These issues drastically reduce the quality of service for
patients, where they are often asked to repeat the
symptoms, they receive poor treatment where each
doctor first tries a drug and the patient has outgrown it,
usually forcing the patient to start a new treatment. The
research adopts descriptive research survey and the
instrument used for the study was a questionnaire
developed to cover the research questions and
hypotheses. Forty-seven respondents were randomly
selected from the population of the Study. The result
from respondents was shown the need of the
implementation of a data management system that
connects three regional hospitals and shares patient
information with the general hospital of CHUK to
improve the services provided to patients, especially
those treated in Kigali city.
