Attending.

-Can designers contribute to better health services?

Innovation targeted towards users habits and experience-needs. (Desired state: feeling cared for and understood/listened to,  just to mention a few.)

Focus on how the user/patient, non-patient meets the service. (the “wait” or the” in-between time”, the insecure and nagging  feeling of the “what if”, not to mention patient-doctor communication.)

Martyn Perks from ”Shaping Social Policy: Designers and Health” will be leading the debate. (I’ll be somewhere in the back-row.)

Though my project is of a preventative nature: how to educate and nudge people on how not to become patients, I still think this seems like a promising meeting.
