What if It Was Like a Departure Lounge at an Airport? - eHealth for Healthcare Staff in a Swedish Healthcare Organization, a Participatory Design Study
eHealth is implemented in everyday work practice as a tool to improve accessibility and patient participation as well as healthcare efficiency. The aim of this study was to explore healthcare staff's experiences and ideas about how eHealth ought to be designed to be a useful tool in everyday work practice in a Swedish healthcare organization. Healthcare staff (n=7) at the micro level in a Swedish healthcare organization, participated in four Participatory Design workshops about eHealth design. eHealth could be a more useful and efficient tool in everyday work practice if it were designed more purposefully for its local setting and intended users, like the information system in ‘a departure lounge of an airport’. Including healthcare staff in design discussions concerning eHealth tools for everyday work practice may improve the efficiency of eHealth as an everyday tool and support for healthcare staff.
