Delighted to be featured in the Healthcare Design this month. Co-designing with users delivers results to please children, young people, families & staff. It is a joy to see how children and families interact with the new space. @operanomad European Healthcare Design 2025 Jas Redfern Jason Leitch

It is always great visiting the V&A Dundee and noticing something new. And it’s always great to see good people at Scottish Paediatric Anaesthetic Network. So great to combine the two today. Thank you very much for the invitation!

Alyson Walker Quality Forum Co-designing can come with challenges: 🔸Time: staff, children, parents 🔸Solutioneering 🔸Gathering feedback at stressful times 🔸Bringing people with you 🔸Managing expectations We need to create time & space for clinicians to do co-design as the outcomes are too important!
