Design process

Starting with receiving a design assignment from the Consultation Room 2030 program, the designer conducted several group discussions to clarify project requirements and formulate a project brief during the preparation phase. Literature reviews and interviews were used to map the current patient journey and the healthcare workflow in cancer supportive care. The problem-thinking phase ended with a well-defined problem.  The problem-solving phase started with framing a design goal. The designer conducted several design ideation sessions to generate and validate a future hybrid journey map and a roadmap in cancer supportive care. The implementation phase was not included in this master project.

Understand

The hybrid patient journey was generated to incorporate rapidly developed digital health into the supportive care system. It introduced potential touch points that happen before the first consultation, during the first consultation, and in follow-up care.
