Conceptualization using HCI techniques for a Health care major

Abstract

The need to manage critical health information has nurtured the growth of health information technology. These software products play a vital role in facilitating the health care organizations to provide improved patient care and they've also been transforming the ways in which these organizations operate. A leading long-term care software suite provider based in the United States had a vision to build such a wide reaching product to be operated in skilled nursing homes. The wide gamut of needs proposed for this long-term care product was conceptualized using HCI techniques. The goal of Futuristic design with Dashboard driven approach was suggested. Further the User Experience concept was role-driven, built on a liquid layout to suit the user's comfort and was coupled with productivity accelerators needed to enhance the experience of both the expert and novice users. This paper demonstrates the virtues of the proposed solution.
