Introduction

Headspace is an organisation based in Australia that works with young people suffering from mental ill health (Jorm, 2016). Recently, they have planned to start ‘My Fitness Report’ system to flourish their service to the young people who are recently having a mental illness.

This report will grandstand the capacities and the facilities of ‘My Fitness Report’. The System Analyst for the newly appointed ‘My Fitness Report’ system has been provided with the liability to prepare a Vision document based on the capacities and the facilities of ‘My Fitness Report’.

1.Problems regarding Headspace’s ‘My Fitness Report’

The primary goal of ‘My Fitness Report’ is to help the young people who are suffering depression and mental ill health. Headspace patients have to consult each and every consultant of Headspaces like the medical staff, the case worker and the General Practitioner and have to discuss their problem in details (Ellis, Churruca & Braithwaite, 2017). For this reason, the patients get stressed out, often miss out the vital points which are required to diagnose the patients’ possible ailments. The patients too feel shy to depict their problems that are why Headspace has decided to bring ‘My Fitness Report’ to the picture (Jorm, 2016). This new model will solve their problem once for all. The patients’ problems will be recorded via ‘My Fitness Report’ once and that’s it, the patients will not have to describe their problems to each and every problem to the medical team of headspace separately in mere future.

2.Capabilities of Headspace’s ‘My Fitness Report’

A youth having mental problems go to Headspace for ailments but there they face a lot of difficulties to explain their difficulties every time (Alonso et al., 2014). It is quite hectic to explain diseases and problems every time, Headspace realises that and invent ‘My Fitness Report’ system for the youth.

The main capacity of this ‘My Fitness Report’ is that both the patients and the doctors can remain connected with one another all throughout day and night, this also assists in reducing the stress the patients suffer from anxiety and mental stress (Ellis, Churruca & Braithwaite, 2017). ‘My Fitness Report’ will definitely help them in facing day-to-day life difficulties, so they require constant assistance from the closed ones and the medical team and the ones who can realise them better. ‘My Fitness Report’ has the capability to keep a record of all the mentally ill patients, these will help the doctors to realise the ailments and understand the patients better, this will also help the patients to solve the personal problems (Welcher et al., 2017). This ‘My Fitness Report’ has the potential to reduce suicides.

Benefits of Headspace’s ‘My Fitness Report’

The ‘My Fitness Report’ system will keep hold of the patients’ vital data in the database with the date and time. To enjoy the benefits of the ‘My Fitness Report’, the patients will have to register with it first and after that, they can consult the medical team of Headspace. The patients will have to describe their problems elaborately and their problem will be recorded in the database. Once the data gets uploaded the medical experts of Headspace can get a glimpse of all the medical problems of the patients. These data can be viewed online via the Internet, so the patients having the Internet can see their medical problems on Headspace website and also the probable solutions related to the problems (Kidd, 2016). Therefore, the patients will have the opportunity to see their test results both offline and online. On the other hand, the medical representative team of Headspace can have the opportunity to upload the test results of the respective patients to the website. The patients can discuss with the doctors both offline and online for further clarified if required.

When the patient will revisit the Headspace for a further checkup, the patients will not have to discuss their problem with multiple medical representatives, the medical team on the other side can identify the patients and their present conditions searching the Headspace’s ‘My Fitness Report’ database (Czaja et al., 2015). Again after a further check-up, the diagnosing results will be transferred on to the database. Thus, both the medical team and the patients can recognise whether the patients are getting well or not.

The ‘My Fitness Report’ will help the patients to view the diagnosing test results in any place, in any time and the patients will not have to keep the hard copies with them all the time (Kidd, 2016). Both the patients and the medical representative team of Headspace can stay connected all the time via this ‘My Fitness Report’ system, this will not only help the patients to recover from their mental illness but will also help in reducing the suicides.

Conclusion

It can be concluded from Headspace’s ‘My Fitness Report’ approaches that in coming future the patients, the youth can be greatly benefitted from the system. In recent times with the increased use of the Internet makes it easier to get better service from this system. As a System Analyst, I can be very happy to see the overall benefits of the ‘My Fitness Report’ system of Headspace.
