[0001] The present invention relates to an information processing system, a control method thereof, and a program.

Background Art

[0002] In recent years, in regional support services, systems for quickly sharing information among organizations have been used. In regional support, for example, support for children, maternal and child health, response to DV (Domestic c Violence), response to sexual violence, response to delinquency and crime, response to developmental disorders, and welfare for the elderly and welfare for persons with disabilities, etc., it is necessary to respond in consideration of various target persons and situations. In such support the supporter actually visits the support target person or conducts an investigation of the surrounding environment of the support target person and as a result, an investigation report is made.

[0003] Depending on the purpose of the support, the investigation content and the matters to be reported vary. For example, in the work related to the support, a free entry area is provided on the system side for investigation reports and other information sharing, and a configuration is used in which a person in charge, etc. appropriately inputs information. For such a free entry area a person with a certain amount of experience can grasp what items should be included in the investigation report. However, for a supporter with relatively little experience, there are cases where it takes time to input the investigation report. Assuming such a case, items to be input in advance are set as fixed-form sentences. For example, in Patent Document 1, a configuration for prescribing items in advance according to a desired theme and creating a sentence using those items is disclosed. Also, in Patent Document 2, fixed-form sentences used in daily reports are held, and when filling out a daily report, it is described that fixed-form sentences representing the content to be recorded can be selectively presented.​​​​ [Prior art documents] [Patent Documents]

[0005] For example, depending on the situation of the person receiving support and the progress of the support, what perspectives should be considered? Since the necessary investigations and reports may change, it is important to understand the more appropriate reporting items. This is difficult for the reporter. Also, in systems for research reporting and information sharing, The input screen for the survey report may include multiple free-form text fields. For reporters, understanding the survey items that need to be entered for each rear area requires practice and experience. This can make reporting more difficult. For example, in the field of support activities for child abuse, etc. Therefore, in order to prioritize care for the target individuals, the burden of administrative tasks such as data entry should be reduced. There is a need to reduce it as much as possible.

[0006] Furthermore, the reports are also useful for decision-makers and others who have the authority to make decisions regarding support. There are times when you might want to add specific survey items to gather more information. Since the items are intended to be used in common, they are listed side by side for survey reports and information sharing. It is preferable to add it to the standard text. Therefore, inputting various survey reports according to the support situation, There is a need to improve the convenience of sharing various types of information. (See Patent Document 1 above.) These issues are not adequately addressed in Patent Document 2.

[0007] In view of the above issues, the present invention improves the convenience of inputting and sharing information related to support. The purpose is to enable. [Means for solving the problem]

Form B has one free-form area (free-form Includes entry area BA). Free entry area BA contains three pre-written phrases (pre-written phrases BAA, BAB). ,BAC) are associated with each other.

[0049] As explained using Figures 4A to 4E, each free-form writing area is associated with It is possible to display pre-defined phrases for selection and allow input. Furthermore, using Figures 5A to 5C... As explained, each template can be added, edited, and even deleted. In this embodiment, each standard phrase is configured to be shared and usable by supporters. This means that a standard phrase registered by one user can be used or edited by another user. It is acceptable to do so. Alternatively, addition, editing, deletion, etc., may be controlled according to the user's permissions. stomach.

[0050] Although not shown in Figure 7, each standard phrase is associated with additional information. (Support recipients) The type of support provided will vary depending on the individual's situation and the stage of support required. The support worker's duties will also change depending on the type of support provided. When duties change, for example, the tasks involved in the work may change. It is anticipated that the focus and key points of the audit and its report may change. Therefore, Users will need to select a predefined phrase corresponding to the status of their task.

[0051] Furthermore, for example, if a certain standard phrase is frequently used, the necessity of the items included in that standard phrase is important. It is assumed that the rate will be high. Also, certain standard phrases are frequently used by users with less experience. In that case, the standard phrase is expected to be particularly useful for users with less experience.

[0052] Based on the above, in this embodiment, user information relating to the user (i.e., the inputter), This uses historical information regarding the use of type statements and status information regarding support-related tasks. These are managed by associating them with a fixed text or a free-form entry area. And in this embodiment, Based on the above-mentioned associated information, for example, the standard phrases in the standard phrase list screen 420 shown in Figure 4B This controls the order and display of each predefined phrase in the list.

[0053] More specifically, for example, as a status of work related to child abuse support, "Initial investigation..." The following scenarios are anticipated: "Under consideration," "Under protection," and "Receiving home support." The series of tasks related to support are predetermined. Sometimes tasks are executed in order, but other times tasks arise unexpectedly. The workflow is predefined in business DB133, and its status is managed and updated. The support work involves conducting surveys according to the circumstances of the people receiving support and the progress of the support. Afterward, an investigation report is prepared to confirm the need for support and the situation, and among multiple users... It will be shared. In this example, the work status for the work related to child abuse support is "Initial investigation..." In each of the following states: "Under Consideration," "Under Protection," and "In-Home Support," for example, UI screen 400 The system will be used to input the survey report.

[0054] The items that are important in reporting the investigation results may differ depending on the status of the work, Pre-register standard phrases corresponding to each situation. In this case, the support provided at this time Manage task statuses and display the most appropriate standard phrases at the top of the list according to each task status. To indicate, or to make the most appropriate standard phrase visible in the list, the standard phrase You can also display icons or other elements associated with them.

[0055] Whether or not it is suitable for the business status is determined using statistical information such as frequency of use. Alternatively, you can use the string information contained in the standard text to make the determination. When recording, a registration screen (not shown) may be used to specify the expected business status. For example, you could sort or filter boilerplate text using a rule-based system, or use a predetermined calculation. Sorting may be performed based on the priority calculated using the given formula.

[0056] Similarly, based on the information of users currently entering survey reports, we can create more appropriate templates. You can also recommend items by displaying them higher in the list or by clearly indicating their icons. The methods of recommendation described above are not the only ones; other methods may also be used. That's good too.

[0057] [Processing flow] Figure 8 is a flowchart of the investigation report processing using a standardized phrase according to this embodiment. The logic flow is, for example, when the control unit 110 of the server device 100 processes the program stored in the storage unit 130. This is achieved by reading and executing gram and various data. Each UI as described above The screen is displayed on the display unit 250 of the user terminal 200, and user operations are received via the UI screen. The command is then sent to the server device 100. Here, for the sake of simplicity, the processing entity is defined as It will be described as server device 100. As mentioned above, depending on the system configuration, each operation It is also possible to perform some or all of this on the user terminal 200 side, in which case this flowchart The main actors in each processing step within the chart can also change.

[0058] Before this processing flow starts, various information is registered in each DB of the server device 100. It is assumed that it is configured to be accessible. Also, the server device 100 is managed by each DB. The system will be in a state where various pieces of information can be added, edited, and deleted. Here, Figures 4A to 4E, Figure Using Figures 5A-5C and Figure 6, we will explain an example of screen transitions using the UI screen examples described above.

[0084] In step S906, the server device 100 performs the business process identified in step S904. Based on the data and statistical information obtained in step S905, in step S902 This function sorts and filters the standardized text. The sorting and filtering methods are particularly important. This is not limiting, and either one may be performed. Also, in step S902 If the number of identified standard phrases is less than a predetermined threshold, sorting or filtering will be performed. It may be controlled so that it does not happen.

[0085] In step S907, the server device 100 reads the standard phrase obtained in step S906. In the list, the business status identified in step S904 and in step S905 The display settings will be configured to explicitly show standard recommendation phrases based on the acquired statistical information. Therefore, based on statistical information, frequently used standard phrases and appropriate phrases should be used in accordance with the business status. For standard phrases, you may display an icon prompting the user to make a selection. These standard phrases are from Step S Due to the processing of 906, it is highly likely that it will be placed higher in the list, therefore, the standard phrases at the top You may then add a recommendation icon.
