Follow-up call on March 19, 2024 - @Paul Adams@Michael Bontyes

  • Update from SL:

    • Critical flags, documentation between shifts, lab results tracking, triage forms with scoring

    • Good feedback on design/UX, comments rather on content

    • Considering both laptop and tablet

    • Interest in decision support, task management, flags, importance of trends highlights


  • To consider

    • Prioritization of end users over supervisors - for the simple reason of health impact

    • Simplify and lower the amount of information on screen as much as possible

    • Great UX vs. Configuration vs. User-specific preference

    • Minified navigation (icons only)

    • Remind what we're aiming for with O3 and the squads - capture needs for iterations

    • Search context

    • Registration

    • Start visit (present or retro)

    • Bed mgmt

    • Transfer 

    • Dispensing
