Dementia
The web application is intended for a private dental clinic, and includes two user roles – one for clinical staff to do training and one for an administrator to manage the courses.
Project Overview
Dementia is an e-learning toolkit for dental care professionals and support staff to identify a patient’s predisposition to dementia at an early stage. By exploiting the solution, doctors get to know disease signs and symptoms much faster.
The web application is intended for a private dental clinic, and includes two user roles – one for clinical staff to do training and one for an administrator to manage the courses.
Story Behind
Our client is an intermediary for large private healthcare institutions, who helps them introduce innovative solutions into a workflow. He had a brilliant idea for facilities that provide dental services and are interested in staff development; the proposal was to launch online training courses to upskill dentists in dementia treatment.
The thing is, poor oral health causes discomfort and reduces blood flow to the brain, which, in turn, can lead to an exacerbation of the symptoms of dementia. Based on risk factors, signs and symptoms, the client brought together tests and a general assessment scale for doctors. Once the learning course was structured and frameworks were well-thought through, he asked us to develop a solution from scratch.
Challenges
While focusing on creating training materials for doctors, the administrative user role should be able to edit course content by dynamically adding images, tables and links. In turn, clinical staff toned to be able to master and assimilate a specific set of knowledge through an intuitive interface. Our aim was to select an appropriate framework, in the view of required interactions, for both profiles.
Despite a thought-out app logic and a precise list of recommendations with guidance for necessary functionality, the layouts were quite sketchy. So, we needed to think over the mark-up in detail, following UX principles, and enrich it with a relevant colour scheme on the spot.
Also, the client wanted a functional, responsive cross-platform solution that could seamlessly operate across all devices and multiple browsers for the sake of user convenience.
