Context
I chose health management because I am passionate about delivering accessible healthcare through human-centred design solutions. I leveraged this project with my existing experience and knowledge in the healthcare field, making it impactful and relevant.
Approach
I approached this through my existing knowledge and background as a healthcare professional, and through user research. What inspired me to start this project was the existing barrier of medication adherence. As I observed firsthand in my practice, patients often struggle with sticking to prescribed regimens for a variety of reasons—whether it’s forgetfulness, complex dosing schedules, or a lack of understanding about the importance of consistency. It became clear to me that improving adherence could have a significant impact on patient outcomes.
I felt there was a gap in tools and support systems that were truly user-friendly and personalized, which led me to explore innovative solutions that could make a real difference. By leveraging both my clinical experience and the insights from patients themselves, I could create something that directly addressed these issues in a meaningful way.
