Brokering Innovation Through Evidence Collaboration for Leadership in Applied Health Research and Care
BITE 3 June 2012
A bite-sized summary of a project within CLAHRC for South Yorkshire Better Outpatient Services for Older People (BOSOP) We undertook a design-led service improvement project that involved older people using a Medical Outpatient service, and the service’s staff. Resulting service improvements include: • re-designed appointment letters • re-design of Medical Outpatient’s main reception • way-finding policy changes at host trust. This project is hosted by the User-Centred Healthcare Design theme.
In the UK, outpatient services are a major element of the health service for older people and large numbers are required to attend hospital-based outpatient clinics. It has been reported that outpatient clinics have fallen behind improvements in inpatient and primary care and they are seldom the focus of the patient-centred quality agenda that promotes personalised care. Significant proportions of older people fail to attend their appointments and there are few studies into the experience of older patients using outpatient services. This project was facilitated by an interdisciplinary team of practitioners and researchers who have applied participatory design methods and thinking to healthcare settings. A significant finding of the project is that an outpatient service extends beyond both the clinical encounter and the physical extent of the building, with many touchpoints before and after an appointment, such as confirmation letters, journeys, wayfinding, and staff interactions. These significant interfaces and interactions constitute critical factors in the experience of patients and staff, and impact upon the ability of the service to perform its clinical role.
