This paper describes the design and implementation of a client applica
tion for the Baylor College of Medicine Teen Health Clinics. The appli
cation is the front end to the Collaborative Social and Medical Servic
es System (CSMSS) under development by Baylor's Medical Informatics an
d Computing Research Program [8]. The application provides distributed
access to an underlying object oriented database system. A process dr
iven and patient centered design will provide staff members with a com
plete set of services, including forms for data entry and viewing, que
ry, and access management to facilitate efficient and effective delive
ry of services. Role-specific interfaces will be supplied for clerks,
nurses, nurse practitioners, physicians, and social workers. The clien
t application is being designed using object oriented methodologies an
d technologies with the C++ programming language, and will operate wit
hin a Microsoft Windows operating environment utilizing Object Linking
and Embedding for application interoperability.
