Moving into week 3 we had a group meeting to discuss the document below. This was provided to each group by Paul to break down the problems in each area, think of possible challenges, the impact our product will have and what the design question could be.
This process was useful to force our group to look further into components our product could have the possibility of offering. As well as developing a design question which changed slightly throughout the process to have a greater focus on the patient wellbeing - as this is the aim of healthcare so naturally we should take that into consideration when developing a healthcare product even if they are not the user.
This was a useful experience to allow our group to note down specific impacts we are aiming to have and list some of the possible solutions - these could be done separately or all together depending on the individual approach we take to this project.
From completing this sheet we have realised the main focus for our product is to increase efficiency in the healthcare sector by allowing staff to access patient information, status and location at the touch of a button, along with receive alerts to patient health and also easily contact other staff members the user may be working with.
