After we took some time off for Christmas Break, with even some of us returning back to our countries for the holidays… we are back!
Team Infection is currently working in a commercial need related with patient behavior and making healthcare even more efficient. As you can imagine, changing people’s behavior can be extremely difficult, especially if it requires a change of routines or habits. Taking that into mind, we are trying to turn it around somehow, making use of those pre-existing behaviors and information, to actually adapt the system to the patient, and not the other way around.
We are also preparing the Clinical Report that we will deliver to the Infectious Diseases Clinic at Danderyds Sjukhus, in which we are suggesting solutions that aim towards real change.
Our master students will be visiting next week the wards, so we are preparing for them an agenda for their kick-off day, where we will show them the clinic, meet the staff and give them guidelines about how to behave at the hospital.
Finally, to end the week, we had a Brainstorming workshop with Anna Thies, Clinical Innovation Fellow:
We had the opportunity to play around with different brainstorming tools, like posting ideas individually or building ideas based on others. It definitely was a fitting tool at this moment, when we are working so thoughtfully with our need! Thank you Anna!
