A hospital has a large number of registered nurses. Attributes of Nurse include N_ID (the primary key), N_Name, and Phone_No. Attributes of PATIENT include Patient_ID (the primary key), Patient_Name. Any patient who is admitted must have one and only one nurse. A nurse may take care of any number of patients. Draw an E-R diagram and convert it into corresponding tables.
Please define and explain structural charts to non-IT people.Add a step-by-step structural chart tutorial.
Database
Design the database following an ER model- The ER should contain all necessary information such as entities, attributes, relationships, cardinalities etc.
for this example (as shown in the picture)

- Database Foundations: Design a database to produce the following reports. Do not use any surrogate keys in your design. For each guide, list the guide number, guide last name, guide first name, address, city, state, postal code, telephone number, and date hired. For each trip, list the trip ID number, the trip name, the location from which the trip starts, the state in which the trip originates, the trip distance, the maximum group size, the type of trip (hiking, biking, or paddling), the season in which the trip occurs, and the guide number, first name, and last name of each guide. A guide may lead many trips and a trip may be led by many different guides.

It also needs to keep track of similar information for suppliers as well (although instead of supplier first and last name, there will just be a supplier company name). The database should maintain the data on products that are offered. Information about which product is offered by which supplier should also be maintained. Finally, which customers have purchased which products should also be tracked (note that we are only interested in which customers bought which product, but not concerned about the date or how many were bought). 1.1 Business Rules: Assumptions for the business model are as follows:•Only customers that have purchased one or more products will…arrow_forward*SI schema contains customers that have bought one or more vehicles.They can be classified using the following criteria:Customers that have bought only one car (one-time buyer)Customer that have bought two cars (two-time buyer)Customers that have bought more than two cars (frequent buyer)Using a SINGLE SELECT statement, display a list of customers withtheir names and what type of buyer they are for all those customersthat have bought Mercedes car makes.arrow_forward
