During 3 days professionals from different departments in the hospital (doctors, nurses, administration, nutrition…) worked in teams to solve a challenge.

During the workshop teams consulted with patients and colleagues to gain a better understanding of the problem. They then applied ideation techniques in order to create various solutions.

OUTCOME
