Apologies for the delay on this. It’s just taken awhile longer than anticipated to digitise and upload the videos from November. Anyway, this will serve as a refresher. First up, Kit Lewis gives us a whistle stop tour of the need for user experience thinking in the healthcare space, covering many of the topics that were discussed in more depth throughout the day from the challenges of readability, the benefits of good patient record keeping (paper records can crash too), and the need for a healthcare tablet pc. This is part 1 and will be followed by a part 2. Please add comments.

Too many to list here in my current vegetated state, but I was very happy with the day and evening proceedings, and am already thinking about the next stages.

Thanks to all the speakers, panelists, attendees, helpers and watchers. I really think we made our first steps to making a real difference. We still have a way to go, but at least the journey is under way.

World Usability Day has finally arrived. We are going to try and blog as much as possible throughout the day and afterwards. We will also be uploading podcasts and videos in due course.

I am very, very excited (and a touch nervous…)

Have a great day.
