Through an auto ethnographic lens, I narrate events which occurred during the month of March 2020. My memories, and their interpretation, continued to transform in the subsequent months, coinciding with the analysis of an earlier set of participants data and writing of the thesis. This paper draws upon such experiences to raise methodological and existential questions in relation to design research and healthcare. The short paper is structured in two parts; the first describes a few memory fragments to help the reader connect with that initial experience, whilst the second discusses the methodological and existential implications alongside a personal reflection, as an invitation for further dialogue within our research community.","PeriodicalId":92348,"journal":{"name":"Design for health (Abingdon, England)","volume":"58 s202","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135341848","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper is a reflective and critical account of practice-led research within lockdown limitations. It includes the personal perspective of an early career researcher and maker’s response to a health emergency. The reflection is focused on the impossibility of creating a physically shared tactile experience as direct contact between skin and matter which, in times of isolation, sparked a conversation within the supervision team, and colleagues on different aspects of touch: agency, contact, self-awareness, research documentation, and ethical implications. My PhD drastically evolved from investigating how the somatosensory system can enhance wellbeing, to exploring how material-based approaches can comprehend tech-matter-human relationship. The research is supported by ‘100 Year Life’ project at Lab4Living, Sheffield Hallam University. In a study that set out to explore the nature and potentiality of touch through human material interaction, in the context of high risk of contagion through touch during COVID I was compelled to consider alternatives. The paper is about the interrogation the touch screen as the safe replacement for human interaction.","PeriodicalId":92348,"journal":{"name":"Design for health (Abingdon, England)","volume":"13 21","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135973309","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Employing a postdigital storytelling approach, I created the film ‘The Covid Diaries’ to tell the story of my roles as mother and academic during the pandemic. As a practice-based design doctoral researcher, making the film became a cathartic exercise in meaning-making. Telling a digital story of my ongoing design research journaling evolved into a qualitative research tool, capturing personal experiences, emotions, and reflections. Through narrative, visuals, and audio, the film portrays the challenges, uncertainties, and resilience of a primary caring parent undertaking doctoral studies during these unprecedented times. It also reveals broader concerns about the treatment of primary caring parents within academic institutions and funding bodies throughout the pandemic. Reflecting on the film-making process, I describe the complexities of identity, self-censorship, and the unique temporal rhythms of research and caregiving. This report contributes to the discourse on transformative experiences and challenges faced by primary caring parents in academia during the pandemic, particularly those undertaking practice-based design research.","PeriodicalId":92348,"journal":{"name":"Design for health (Abingdon, England)","volume":"4 3","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-11-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135271692","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In India, the situation changed significantly after the establishment of the Mental Healthcare Act, 2017. The nature of change has been affected by the history, cultural norms, and climatic conditions of the country as well. However, today, India follows a generalized design guideline that is devoid of country-specific considerations. Moreover, there is a dearth of recent research work based on contextual design and site location considerations for a mental health establishment in India. This paper presents a study on the current policies of India, the existing design and location theories of mental health care facilities and contextualization of those theories on two primary case studies and two possible site locations. The findings are then applied to an academic design project with a discussion on the possible design and location considerations that need to be addressed in country or state-specific guidelines. It is concluded by highlighting the relevance of case-specific, rather than generalized, fit-for-every-place approach, today.Keywords: Mental health care facilityIndian guidelinessite locationarchitectural design theoriesdeinstitutionalizationhealing architecture AcknowledgmentThe author(s) received no financial support for the research, authorship, and/or publication of this article.Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Additional informationNotes on contributorsAratrika SarkarAratrika Sarkar is a student of Masters of City Planning at Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur, West Bengal.

Research on labour force participation reports that employment is often interrupted during the menopausal transition due to difficulties accessing timely medical support and social discrimination. These interruptions result in the loss of professional expertise for employers and financial security for employees. To identify the characteristics of and gaps in design research for menopause we conducted a scoping review of the literature. We sourced and analysed 24 articles, mapping them according to their alignment with three conceptual framings of menopause from the sociology of medicine; a medicalized condition requiring pharmacological treatment, a natural life stage that is managed with complementary therapies, and a demedicalized issue where illness and health are framed as always socially situated. We found that the articles on menopause were relatively evenly distributed across the medicalized and demedicalized framings, with fewer developed within a natural framing. Our findings offer design researchers an overview of frameworks that are commonly used in health research and that we see as productive for further multidisciplinary research collaborations for menopause, and for research concerning the intersections of gender, sexualities, ageing and health more broadly.","PeriodicalId":92348,"journal":{"name":"Design for health (Abingdon, England)","volume":"164 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-18","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135887903","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In practice, however, it is difficult to involve potential users and keep them involved. In a multiple-case study, we investigate ten eHealth projects in which design researchers and healthcare researchers worked together. We focus on how they involved potential users and kept them involved. Both domains have a rich tradition of involving potential users and see their involvement of potential (future) users in the early stages of innovation as essential. Therefore it is interesting to investigate projects in which design researchers and healthcare researchers intensively work together. We discovered seven strategies to promote the involvement of potential users in eHealth research projects: (1) use research methods based on building personal relationships; (2) build trust before introducing research methods; (3) facilitate the preconditions around the moments of involvement; (4) facilitate by introducing a prototype as a boundary object; (5) choose the method that fits the research context; (6) integrate the values behind the eHealth tool into the research method; (7) involve proxies instead of the potential users. These strategies may guide future projects where design researchers and healthcare researchers work together with potential users.Keywords: User involvementresearchdesignhealthcareeHealth AcknowledgementsThe authors would like to thank all interviewees and the project team of the overarching project of the ‘Create Health’ program.Authors’ contributionsW.v.B, W.B., and D.A. conceptualized the study.

However, some participants might find co-design sessions disempowering if they cannot engage in activities or undertake tasks. Consequently, researchers and designers need to ensure that co-design is used in a way that is accessible to all participants regardless of impairment or disability. In this case study, we report on the accessibility of a co-design process through a series of co-design workshops with university students who experienced disabilities. While the co-design sessions explored the topic of an ‘accessible university’, participant reflections on the co-design experience brought to life the meaning of ‘accessibility’ in the context of how best to involve them in a co-design process. A flexible and negotiated approach and adapted tools improved the experience for those with accessibility challenges. Five key insights are presented to support others who wish to facilitate accessible codesign sessions.","PeriodicalId":92348,"journal":{"name":"Design for health (Abingdon, England)","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"136295791","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This thorough interrogation of the nature of the retirement housing market, and the motivations of the people who live and work in it, is drawn from the author’s primary research conducted between 2014 and 2018. The proportion of people living longer has grown in recent decades and is predicted to increase. According to the Office for National Statistics, in England in 2021 there were 10.4miliion people over 65 with 1.7million of these being over 85. It is predicted that a quarter of the UK population will be over 65 by 2050. The design and quality of housing can have a significant impact on health and wellbeing, especially in later life. This book provides an invaluable understanding of the benefits and disadvantages of specialist housing for older people. It will be a useful resource for anyone concerned with design and delivery, as well as those considering it as an option. From his perspective as an architect and educator, in the context of design research for change, Clarke provides invaluable insights into all the factors to consider in the design of housing that can support living well in later life. By sharing his findings and reflections on his research into a particular developer’s model of retirement housing, he compares accounts of the lived experience of people who live and work in the building to the perspectives of the housing developer.","PeriodicalId":92348,"journal":{"name":"Design for health (Abingdon, England)","volume":"47 1","pages":"281 - 285"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-05-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77455909","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
