‘Start with something you have control over to influence the bigger system’ and ‘embrace complexity of healthcare but always try to do the possible to bring it back to simplicity’ @YinLingjing and other practical realities of #designinginhealthcare. Great talks @DesignHealthUK

[Designing Health @DesignHealthUK]

And we finish the event with questions from the audience. "What would the future of healthcare look like?"

[Designing Health @DesignHealthUK]

Chat allows @babylonhealth to understand what people are worried about now, so we know what needs to address first. @SappingtonEmily

[Designing Health @DesignHealthUK]

What a great panel of women shaping the future of health! @LaisdAlmeida, @YinLingjing, @SappingtonEmily and Nora Pincus 🚀⚕️

[Designing Health @DesignHealthUK]

@SappingtonEmily on when to use the right tool. Like using voice in Rwanda, where a lot of people can't read.

[Designing Health @DesignHealthUK]

"Setting expectations is key. You don't want to be the Fyre festival of the app store." @SappingtonEmily

[Designing Health @DesignHealthUK]

"I know more about my car than what I know about my body" @SappingtonEmily

[Designing Health @DesignHealthUK]

Last, @SappingtonEmily from @babylonhealth, talking about tools to improve access to healthcare. 🚀

[Designing Health @DesignHealthUK]

Great reflection! Designers get excited about end-to-end journeys and front-to-back design, however, companies are not ready for that type of work. 💯

[Designing Health @DesignHealthUK]

Facilitating collaborations between local and central government can help to design and deliver better emergency care services.

[Idean UK @idean_UK]

How often do you feel like you’re ping-ponging between different NHS services... @YinLingjing tells us that our system makes patients do the hard work to navigate its complexities. So where can digital make the biggest impact?

[Designing Health @DesignHealthUK]

Stakeholder engagement in healthcare is challenging. Especially when you try to bring together all 19,300 organisations involved in delivering urgent and emergency care.

[Designing Health @DesignHealthUK]

To a patient, urgent and emergency care is stressful, inconvenient, confusing, and sometimes a scary moment in life.

[Aideen Larmer @AideenLarmer]

How can we ensure equitable healthcare from the patient perspective?
👉🏻Availabilty
👉🏻Affordability
👉🏻Accessibility
👉🏻Adequacy
👉🏻Appropriateness
How can design help?
@DesignHealthUK

[Designing Health @DesignHealthUK]

A multidisciplinary team of 20 people led the work over 6 months, including data scientists, designers, clinicians and researchers.

[Designing Health @DesignHealthUK]

Next, @YinLingjing presenting the latest work that @NHSEngland and @FutureGov did on urgent and emergency care.

[Designing Health @DesignHealthUK]

All the material for new mothers and family members were co-design with them, clinicians and members of the delivery team.

[Designing Health @DesignHealthUK]

First, Nora Pincus from @idean_UK , talking about designing postnatal healthcare services in Nepal.
