Guillermina Noël co-organizes Event on Healthcare Design Challenges with Lucerne Cantonal Hospital

As the head of the Design Management, International bachelor’s program and an established design researcher in the healthcare field, Guillermina Noël co-organized an event linking design and healthcare, titled “Enhancing Patients and Clinicians’ Capacity through Design,” in collaboration with Lucerne Cantonal Hospital, on 12 July 2024.

 

The event started with the talks from the two leaders in healthcare innovation, Dr. Thomas Zeltner and Dr. Ian Hargraves, who addressed the pressing healthcare issues.

Dr. Zeltner’s talk focused on design for better teamwork, design for improved work-life balance and career development, and design for increased job satisfaction and the prevention of burnout. On the other hand, Dr. Hargraves talked about Shared Decision Making (SDM) as co-design and emphasized the need to adapt SDM to each patient’s problems.

After the presentation, a panel discussion moderated by Guillermina took place, featuring Dr. Thomas Zeltner, Dr. Ian Hargraves and Dr. Balthasar Hug.
