End of Life in the context of COVID-19. With @theblumline and team from @EmergDesign we tackled this important topic. In this piece, explore our themes & insights, patient journey, design opportunities, and guide to current resources: https://t.co/7XT24RVAk5

We had a great time sharing our story at the @stanforddschool class Design for Health. Thank you @EmWagz @davidjanka @DocWagz, Dr Alexander Clark and the wonderful students for having us! @amanda_sammann @dpatz94

We had a great @stanforddschool class partnership with @StanfordEMED for our second project in Design for Health this year! Many thanks to the department and @DocWagz for making it happen.

Faculty from @StanfordEMED hear innovative #designthinking-based solutions at the finale of EMED255/DINST255. Under guidance from @DocWagz cross-discipline students address how SHC patients access time-sensitive care. @MikeGisondi @Blomkalns @stanforddschool

Today in Design for Health @stanforddschool we prototyped a game designed by @EmWagz to experience the urgency, frustration and haphazardness of addressing an acute medical need. HMW Improve Navigating Time-Sensitive Healthcare?

We’re on the airwaves! So pleased to hear @steingreenberg featured on this week’s #makemesmart with @kairyssdal and @mollywood talking about design and the value of empathy.

Health-care professionals are problem solvers by nature — and now they're increasingly embracing the role of designers. Here's why that matters » https://t.co/4CDiBZb7Hp

An important reminder to look for meaning (from the perspective of the patient and their caregivers) as we frame opportunities to redesign healthcare experiences, services and products. https://t.co/2rSBdAICB8

[Bon Ku, MD, MPP @BonKu]

Here at #MedX with @davidjanka + @mtrowbr talking about how we can teach design thinking to doctors.

[David Janka, MD @davidjanka]

It's so exciting to see @DellMedSchool & @DesignInHealth MAKING IT HAPPEN! https://t.co/CROfPdCq1h

"How might we train medical students for a health system that won't exist until they create it?"
@DesignInHealth led by @Stacey_Chang is equipping doctors of the future with design skills!

For more on teaching design thinking in medical school, join @BonKu @mtrowbr and me this year at @stanfordmedx ED! #MedEd #MedX https://t.co/tQkqx6kBlF

Thanks to Dr. @BonKu for locating medical schools that teach Design Thinking to go into the 2018 #DesignInTech Report. https://t.co/dzR2gI63BD

Designing healthcare experiences of the future demands radical empathy: “When a person comes through the training and we ask why they did certain things that look bizarre, like a person with dementia, they can answer.”

The role of hospitals is poised to evolve dramatically as new platforms for healthcare change the practice of medicine & patient experience: https://t.co/dHdleO5fat
