Finding your way in the medical maze: How digital wayfinding ensures seamless navigation in healthcare
Healthcare is something everybody needs to be smart about, and I do believe it is arguable that they do have the smartest places with the smartest people. So, I’m not going to write about how we can make the health sector smarter; I’m going to talk about navigating through these huge, complex buildings to either find your appointment or an asset that may be critical to your daily work. All healthcare centres are filled with very expensive assets that most of the time require effort to find. Also, patients congregating in huge, built-up spaces is daunting from the outset and their needs are to be routed to their appointments.
Inclusive Journeys for All

The commissioning group wanted to develop a door to door planning tool that would help users with disabilities retrieve routing information in a clear way, with alternative travel options and the ability to communicate with staff and other users in case of difficulty.
