Human Centred Design is a significant approach in design. It increases the value of design as well as helping businesses to overcome the challenges of not meeting user needs. However, the abundance of Human Centred Design tools and the difficulty to discriminate between them have created the urge to develop selection framework for these tools in regard to the design process. In this paper, I present a framework to assist in selecting Human Centred Design tools. I highlight the significance of the Human Centred Design approach. I also explain the theoretical background behind creating the framework. Then I describe the participatory design workshop method I used to support and validate the results of the theoretical background in order to further develop the selection framework. This framework can be adopted in the design field in order to facilitate the process and to support practitioners’ decisions to select suitable tools.

BACKGROUND Transition home after hospitalization involves the potential risk of adverse patient events, such as knowledge deficits related to self-care, medication errors, and readmissions. Despite broad organizational efforts to provide better care transitions for patients, there are challenges in implementing interventions that effectively improve care transition outcomes, as evidenced by readmission rates. Collaborative efforts that require healthcare professionals, patients, and caregivers to work together are necessary to identify gaps associated with transitions of care and generate effective transitional care interventions. OBJECTIVE This study aims to understand the effectiveness of the Integrated Michigan Patient-Centered Alliance in Care Transitions (I-MPACT) design model of bringing together stakeholders of the healthcare system and providing them with a novel tool that captures the patient perspective (patient journey map). METHODS We chose a mixed method of direct patient observations and a participatory design workshop to develop transitional care interventions that serve each hospital’s unique situation and contexts. By applying thematic analysis methods, we analyzed problem statements and proposed interventions collected from the participatory design workshops. Findings showed the patterns of major discussion during the workshop. RESULTS Based on workshop results, we formalized the I-MPACT transition of care model, SAFEDC (socioeconomic, active engagement, follow-up, education, discharge readiness tool, consistency), which other organizations can apply to improve patient experiences in care transition. CONCLUSIONS Our study demonstrates the benefits of the participatory design approach in defining challenges associated with transitions of care related to patient discharge and generating sustainable interventions to improve care transitions.

How to incorporate critical and societally relevant thinking and acting into Higher Education teaching formats? The article proposes social design workshops, which teach ethics through design by explicitly addressing and building on the functional diversity of participating stakeholders, and by fostering ongoing mutual reflection. These workshops are inspired by participatory design, political theory, disability studies and psychological practice research. By drawing on empirical material from a design workshop with Bachelor students and external collaborators including psychologically vulnerable stakeholders, we argue for an adaptive framework of analytical-pedagogical inquiry that can be continuously co-designed. In particular, ethical design requires a broad and emergent definition of participation. Ethical design is participatory-democratic co-design, which acknowledges and bridges across the various stakeholders’ functional diversity.

Conventional design practices regard gender as a given precondition defined by femininity and masculinity. To shift these strategies to include non-heteronormative or queer users, queer theory served as a source of inspiration as well as user sensitive design techniques. As a result, a co-design workshop was developed and executed. Participants supported claims that gender scripts in designed artefacts uphold gender norms. The practice did not specify a definition of a queer design style. However, the co-design practice opened up the design process to non-normative gender scripts by unmasking binary gender dichotomies in industrial design.
