ARENA - A patient's journey

About this 11th edition

Today we look at health holistically and include emotional and mental wellbeing. Unfortunately, our social workers, general practitioners, mental health facilities and hospitals are under a lot of pressure. Ideally, we can prevent certain risks; this is not just down to the individual but a community effort. And even when we need treatments, the experience can still be vastly improved. We believe service design can help us to design with health in mind from prevention, treatment to follow-up.
