Pharmacy Redesign

90082-pharmacy-wip-81.jpg

The main driver behind the Auckland City Hospital Pharmacy redesign is taking the current retail gift shop focus, and making it a health and wellbeing service, decreasing wait times for prescriptions, and providing more nutritional health-based  products. A large part of this redesign is a cost-effective 'quick win'. This is seeing what we can accomplish now to improve the pharmacy's functionality, and later inform decision making around a future-proposal for a brand new pharmacy. 

Using co-design, the team have been incorporating the pharmacy staff in the design process using a variety of tools to engage them in the process.

Our Peoples' Voice

The public spaces discovery week collected the opinions of hundreds of patients, visitors and staff at the the Grafton campus. We have turned these quotes into a deck of cards. The deck is used to help frame up new projects and challenge Lab staff and students at different stages of a project. They are an effective method of engaging with the users of the hospital, and help us to design effective solutions.
