User-centered design of a context-aware nurse assistant (CANA) at Finnish elderly houses

Abstract: In the age of mobile and ubiquitous computing, many nurses working in the healthcare sector still utilize traditional tools (e.g., paper calendars and clipboards) and pre-installed mobile applications (e.g., web browser, calendar) in their work activities. There exists a variety of mHealth applications, but none of them combines essential professional tools for nursing.

“…35 This method adopts the same stages as Systematic Design of Instruction, except that the stage of implementation takes place simultaneously with the stages of analysis/elaboration, adding stages and adding greater detailing to this technological tool. [44][45][46] The method of User Centered Design (UCD) was used to develop apps in the area of Geriatric Nursing 32 and Primary Care (prevention of chronic diseases). 29 This is a method which establishes participation/collaboration between the users and designers/researchers in the phase of conception, so as to develop computer-based systems, namely, the mobile apps.…”

“…The results were utilized in the conceptual design of the context-aware nurse assistant (CANA) application, which combines the identified functionalities and provides context-sensitive services to consolidate nurses' work activities. The results of this case study are published in the ICUM 2015 conference proceedings [57]. Figure 10 presents sample of application user interface.…”
