10081D0010 Koteshwar.G Patient Medication Form

The document describes normalizing a database table containing staff and ward information into three normal forms. In the first normal form, the table is split into two tables based on the primary key. In the second normal form, non-key attributes are moved into separate tables to remove data redundancy. In the third normal form, transitive dependencies are removed by separating attributes that depend on non-key attributes rather than the primary key.
