Understanding User Needs and Satisfying ThemAggregage
https://www.productmanagementtoday.com/frs/26903918/understanding-user-needs-and-satisfying-them
We know we want to create products which our customers find to be valuable. Whether we label it as customer-centric or product-led depends on how long we've been doing product management. There are three challenges we face when doing this. The obvious challenge is figuring out what our users need; the non-obvious challenges are in creating a shared understanding of those needs and in sensing if what we're doing is meeting those needs.
In this webinar, we won't focus on the research methods for discovering user-needs. We will focus on synthesis of the needs we discover, communication and alignment tools, and how we operationalize addressing those needs.
Industry expert Scott Sehlhorst will:
• Introduce a taxonomy for user goals with real world examples
• Present the Onion Diagram, a tool for contextualizing task-level goals
• Illustrate how customer journey maps capture activity-level and task-level goals
• Demonstrate the best approach to selection and prioritization of user-goals to address
• Highlight the crucial benchmarks, observable changes, in ensuring fulfillment of customer needs

9. Tribute Tree
IDEA #1: TRIBUTE TREE
PURPOSE:
To recognise and appreciate doners
IMPLEMENTATION FOR ASIA:
Allocate a wall space near your main lobby. Paint
the body of the tree with the branches. The “Gold
Leaves” can be added for each doner. The leaves
can be placed on the tree for a pre-decided period,
or you can have a different colour leave to
recognise different types of doners.
EXAMPLE:
Families are provided an opportunity to thank the
staff for looking after their loved ones by writing a
message for the tree and giving a donation
DEMENTIA CARE | NURSING HOME | HOSPITAL | REHABILITATION | APARTMENTS FOR LIFE | PALLIATIVE
10. Lolly Trolley
IDEA #2: LOLLY TROLLEY
PURPOSE:
To create opportunities for conversations & smiles
IMPLEMENTATION FOR ASIA:
Create a volunteer and elderly resident buddy team
to go around the facility daily or once a week,
subject to your manpower resourcing abilities. This
trolley should be colourfully decorated, instead of
sweets, you can also give our small packets or
biscuits or nuts. You can also add a bell so that
people know that the trolley is coming. It creates an
interesting activity for the volunteer and it engages
the resident and creates purpose.
EXAMPLE:
At 2pm daily or once a week, the volunteer and
elderly resident makes their rounds around the
facility to distribute goodies to staff and residents.
DEMENTIA CARE | NURSING HOME | HOSPITAL | REHABILITATION | APARTMENTS FOR LIFE | PALLIATIVE
11. In-house Supermarket
IDEA #3: IN-HOUSE SUPERMARKET
PURPOSE:
To create opportunities for daily living activities for
persons with Dementia
IMPLEMENTATION FOR ASIA:
Allocate a large room near the entrance of your
facility where you can create a in-house minimart.
This minimart should stock up food that the kitchen
uses for their daily cooking. Residents can be more
involved in the daily meal activities by taking turns
to select items that they would like to eat. Or they
can help to stock up the pantry areas with the
products.
EXAMPLE:
These shopping trips should be accompanied by a
care giver. A ‘cashier’ should be put in place to
record the items taken too. No cash transactions
are involved.
DEMENTIA CARE | NURSING HOME | HOSPITAL | REHABILITATION | APARTMENTS FOR LIFE | PALLIATIVE
12. Open Space Events
IDEA #4: OPEN SPACE EVENTS
PURPOSE:
To create conversational spaces and activities
IMPLEMENTATION FOR ASIA:
Maximise lobby space to organise a variety of
different events throughout the year. Encourage
community groups to use the space for free. In
exchange, they have have to include the residents
in the activities. Open your gardens, roof terraces,
lobby areas to student groups, community groups
in the surround area.
EXAMPLE:
Recruit volunteer event organisers to help to drive
your open space events. They can work with a
community club’s performance group. Have the
participants of the community centre’s ballroom
dancing class perform after they complete the
programme. Turn it into a graduation night, you can
invite your residents, funders and the family of the
dancers for a dinner event.
DEMENTIA CARE | NURSING HOME | HOSPITAL | REHABILITATION | APARTMENTS FOR LIFE | PALLIATIVE
13. Resident Ambassadors
IDEA #5: RESIDENT AMBASSADORS
PURPOSE:
Create purpose and activities for residents
IMPLEMENTATION FOR ASIA:
Invite some of your more vocal and mobile
residents to form a residents committee. An activity
coordinator needs to help to organise them and to
sit in at meetings with them. Their role can be to
show visitors around the home, organise a
performance, and also to make a short introduction
about the home and to share their personal story
with visitors.
EXAMPLE:
Organise for some of the residents to learn to give
a speech to an audience. They can introduce who
they are, anything they would like to share about
the home to visitors. They would also help to
introduce the home and to show their own spaces.
DEMENTIA CARE | NURSING HOME | HOSPITAL | REHABILITATION | APARTMENTS FOR LIFE | PALLIATIVE
14. Mobile Grocer
IDEA #6: MOBILE GROCER
PURPOSE:
Enable staff and residents to shop for fresh
produce and fruits
IMPLEMENTATION FOR ASIA:
Engage with the market closest to your home. Find
out if they can offer a 1-2 times a week service
where they can arrive with a few boxes of fresh
fruit and vegetables for 1-2 hours to sell directly to
your staff and residents. You can also work with
your regular fruit and vegetable supplier. The idea
is to create similarities to daily living activities
where they have to buy their own food. It can also
be a flea market stall, selling daily necessities, you
can also organise for this to happen on weekends
to create activities for your visitors.
EXAMPLE:
Mobile grocer day. Residents know that there is a
day that they can purchase fresh fruits from the
mobile grocer. The home can also sponsor the fruit
so that residents can pick what they want.
DEMENTIA CARE | NURSING HOME | HOSPITAL | REHABILITATION | APARTMENTS FOR LIFE | PALLIATIVE
15. Lifestyle Groups
IDEA #7: LIFESTYLE GROUPS
PURPOSE:
Group residents of similar interests or culture or
hobbies to live together so that they get along
better
IMPLEMENTATION FOR ASIA:
Organise for people of the same personality to live
together. Eg. All those who enjoy group activities,
interactions, can speak the same language. This
should flow down to the style of the living space,
and the personalities of the care givers that look
after the residents there. Have the lifestyle group
sit together to meals.
EXAMPLE:
Active Chinese speaking lifestyle group.
DEMENTIA CARE | NURSING HOME | HOSPITAL | REHABILITATION | APARTMENTS FOR LIFE | PALLIATIVE
16. Memory Boxes
IDEA #8: MEMORY BOXES
PURPOSE:
Helps residents identify their rooms and recall their
past
IMPLEMENTATION FOR ASIA:
Create memory cabinets next to their beds, so that
they can put in their favourite items that reminds
them of family, their life, or the past. This can also
be an activity that makes the family members feel
involved as they can help with the items to place in
the memory boxes. These boxes can also be
locked.
EXAMPLE:
Photos, soft toys, favourite items
DEMENTIA CARE | NURSING HOME | HOSPITAL | REHABILITATION | APARTMENTS FOR LIFE | PALLIATIVE
17. 3D Art Walls
IDEA #9: 3D ART WALLS
PURPOSE:
To create prettier hallways, opportunities for
conversations, improve sensory skills, encourage
residents to touch the art
IMPLEMENTATION FOR ASIA:
Invite volunteers to create 3D artwork. You can
also work with schools. Create a theme for the
different spaces 3D art can also make use of
recycled items.
EXAMPLE:
3D artwork that helps to remind them of the past.
Eg. Cooking utensils from a certain year.
DEMENTIA CARE | NURSING HOME | HOSPITAL | REHABILITATION | APARTMENTS FOR LIFE | PALLIATIVE
18. Reminance Museums
IDEA #10: REMINANCE MUSEUMS
PURPOSE:
To create a large space that people with Dementia
can feel at home in
IMPLEMENTATION FOR ASIA:
Find a large space within your organisation to
create a space like this. Ideally, it should contain a
living room, kitchen, bedroom and furniture for
sitting around. It can also have music, and lightings
to suit the atmosphere. It has to feel like home.
EXAMPLE:
Living room, kitchen, bedroom suited to the age
group of the residents that your clients are form
