Community Nurses - Transporting Equipment Issues

Specialties Public/Community

Published

Hello everybody,

I would like to start off by explaining my situation, so please read through my post as I would really appreciate your help and input.

First off, I am not in the nursing profession, I am actually studying Product Design at university, and am in my 3rd and final year, which I have a major project for which is aimed primarily at community nurses.

I do know some community nurses in the mid-south of England, who have identified that they have a problem with transporting their equipment to and from clients for various reasons, ranging from poorly designed trolleys that break every 4 months, to unprofessional looking crates/boxes, and even methods that are unsuitable ending in loss of documents.

I am therefore looking into designing a Modular Trolley (primarily aimed at community nurses, however there are other areas that it could be used in)

For me to design this properly, I need as much information as I can get identifying the problems community nurses come across.

I have an online survey set up on SurveyMonkey which I would really appreciate all of your feedback. And of course I will keep checking on here if anyone would like any other information on what I am doing, or even if you are interested and want to see where this is going.

Below is the link to the survey, it is only 10 questions long and is completely anonymous and free, and would really help me with my degree.

Thank you all for you time

Hi HR Logan, what was the result of your design project? Are you in a position to share. The final design? Tim Ball
