Pitch

Rédigé par l’équipe. Pas une offre d’investissement, pas un conseil.

Problème

Un retraité tasmanien fait face à une longue attente pour des soins médicaux urgents. Ce projet propose une liste de contrôle non clinique pour aider les patients vulnérables à naviguer dans les retards et à accéder à un soutien.

Ce qu’ils construisent

A one-page paper checklist and information sheet, created in collaboration with a local patient advocacy group, distributed at one clinic or community center to up to 20 patients over one month. The checklist will include steps for contacting the hospital, seeking advocacy, and finding local support services.

Proposed validation: Proposed pilot target: Distribute checklist to 20 patients over one month; measure via a short survey if at least 60% report increased awareness of support options compared to baseline. Baseline: current awareness level before checklist distribution. Measurement: anonym
