Designing Innovations for Occupational Well-Being in Healthcare

This chapter discusses the interface between co-design and occupational well-being and expands the discussion about how co-design fosters innovation on occupational well-being in healthcare. This research is aiming to change both the way occupational well-being is discussed in healthcare context and the tools offered to create change and innovations around occupational well-being. We felt it is important to focus on topics that are enhancing workplace wellbeing and empowering individual workers. This is the motivation for a variety of solution-focused and empowering methods within the design processes. Our research question is: How co-design and solution-focused methods can foster innovations and tools around occupational well-being?
