Problema

Un pensionato tasmaniano affronta una lunga attesa per cure mediche urgenti. Questo progetto propone una checklist non clinica per aiutare i pazienti vulnerabili a navigare nei ritardi e accedere al supporto.

Cosa stanno costruendo

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.
