eHealth Ireland is organising four workshops over two days to create and develop Personas to support the development of the Electronic Health Record (EHR) Programme. We are inviting all those who work in health services to attend on Tuesday 31st, January 2017 or Wednesday, 1st February 2017. Patients and patient advocates will be invited to attend a separate workshop on the morning of Wednesday, 1st February 2017.
The Office of the CIO and the Clinical Strategy and Programmes directorate are undertaking a process to develop EHR Personas and Scenarios. A Persona is an outline view of a person. It presents a snapshot of their demographic details, their background, their underlying health status and their goals and frustrations. Each Persona will be accompanied by three Scenarios. A Scenario describes the person’s journey in relation to a particular interaction with the health service. The purpose of the workshops will be to create and develop Personas and Scenarios focused on users of health services and those who work within the services.
Please see attached Personas sample
There will be 3 workshop sessions for those who work in health services. The workshops will be limited to 100 people per session.
