Why This Matters
Spinal cord injury patients have diverse needs, from medical care to psychological support, often lacking a centralized resource for motivation and guidance. With this new solution, our team aims to fill this gap by:
– Creating a tailored application for patients and caregivers.
– Ensuring a seamless blend of technical functionality and real-world usability.
– Harnessing insights from healthcare professionals, peer workers, and the patients themselves.
🛠️ How We’re Making It Happen
💡 Collaborative Testing:
– Conducting workshops with healthcare staff to refine clinical needs.
– Using on-site trials and online surveys to gather patient feedback.
📊 Holistic Data Collection:
– Gathering qualitative insights through interviews and focus groups.
– Tracking quantitative metrics to measure user interaction and functionality.
🔄 Iterative Development:
– Creating regular feedback loops with patients, staff, and developers.
– Prioritizing motivation, usability, and personalization in the design.
🙌 The Impact
Thanks to a strong partnership with the Spinal Unit at Liberec Hospital, we’re not only co-developing an app but also fostering a supportive ecosystem where patients and families feel heard and empowered.
Peer workers—SCI survivors themselves—play a pivotal role, bridging the gap between technical design and real-life needs.
