The Challenge
The photobiology department within NHS Tayside required the design of a kit that would allow their patients to self-administer 'Daylight PDT' procedure
at home.
The Solution
I crafted a box kit enclosing all the relevant components and designed the corresponding instructions. Making the patient experience as simple and straightforward as possible.
​
The work was then entered and noticed at a national dermatology conference, alongside a published abstract.
​
The box kit is now manufactured at industry level and implemented into the healthcare system in two separate locations across Scotland.
