2. Given the following business scenario, create a Crows Foot ERD using a specialization hierarchy if
appropriate. Tiny Hospital keeps information on patients and hospital rooms. The system assigns each
patient a patient ID number. In addition, the patients name and date of birth are recorded. Some patients
are resident patients who spend at least one night in the hospital, and others are outpatients who are
treated and released. Resident patients are assigned to a room. Each room is identified by a room
number. The system also stores the room type (private or semiprivate) and room fee. Over time, each
room will have many patients. Each resident patient will stay in only one room. Every room must have
had a patient, and every resident patient must have a room.

7. The FlyRight Aircraft Maintenance (FRAM) division of the FlyRight Company (FRC) performs all
maintenance for FRCs aircraft. Produce a data model segment that reflects the following business rules:

All mechanics are FRC employees. Not all employees are mechanics.

Some mechanics are specialized in engine (EN) maintenance. Others are specialized in airframe
(AF) maintenance or avionics (AV) maintenance. (Avionics are the electronic components of an
aircraft that are used in communication and navigation.) All mechanics take periodic refresher
courses to stay current in their areas of expertise. FRC tracks all courses taken by each
mechanicdate, course type, certification (Y/N), and performance.

FRC keeps an employment history of all mechanics. The history includes the date hired, date
promoted, and date terminated.

Given those requirements, create the Crows Foot ERD segment.
