How can we refine primary care to better support both patients and caregivers, leveraging the relationship between primary care and design?



This topic explores the relationship between primary care and design, addressing challenges across the continuum—from information to product to place and policy—while considering the environments we live in and the human behaviors that shape them. The goal is to create meaningful transformations in the lives of patients and caregivers by implementing feasible and actionable solutions.

Throughout the semester, students will engage with real-world challenges faced by patients and primary care workers, drawing insights from primary and secondary research. They will focus on thoughtful considerations to address mental health issues among senior residents. Each student team will propose actionable and interdisciplinary interventions and innovations, contributing to the comprehensive design spectrum in primary care.

By refining primary care through this interdisciplinary approach, students aim to provide holistic solutions that improve patient care while supporting caregiver wellbeing.
