Women’s Health Info Kit
Information Design, Identityfall 2021
As a young woman myself, I’ve found it difficult to navigate healthcare services on my own for the first time. This anxiety is a common experience that my kit aims to ease by providing clear, digestible information for women who are beginning their healthcare journies on their own. The kit includes a card that acts as an introduction of the kit, 5 informational cards, a timeline, and a sticket sheet. The 5 cards highlight the main tests that women need to get in their lifetime, providing details about what the test is, at what age to get them, and how often to get tested. The timeline lays out the tests in a clear, linear manner. The stickers are to highlight certain tests, important dates, and appointments in the user’s calendar.
The finished kits were placed in a women’s bathroom on my university’s campus. I chose a bathroom in the main library since this bathroom sees a lot of foot traffic from primarily underclassmen. Because the kit targets women who are “just starting out,” a women’s bathroom at a university was the perfect location to easily reach this demographic.
