The Power of Graphic Medicine
It's Portfolio Throwback time, and as I'm often slow to post stuff I've got plenty of material to throw back to!!
Over the last eleven years I've done a lot of work in the health sector helping clients to demystify illnesses so that patients can better understand them, as well as illustrate patient profiles and map out patient journeys.
From Diabetes to Chronic Renal Failure, Childhood Meningitis to Psoriasis, Lupus, Cardiovascular disease, Haemophilia..and more, I’ve become (practically 😉) an expert in these areas.
Making scientific and medical information accessible and comprehensible for patients and their families is essential. This is where visuals can really do some heavy lifting. They not only simplify intricate data but also make patients feel seen during what can be an overwhelming and daunting experience. What surprised me when I first started working in Graphic Recording is the number of healthcare professionals who also have very handy drawing skills. In fact if you google ‘Graphic Medicine’ you’ll find some cracking examples.
Of course it’s not just illnesses that can be hard to explain… Rich Picture illustrations like these can be used all manner of complex concepts and processes. So if you’re grappling with finding an easy way to explain something, let’s chat, I’m sure I’ll be able to help simplify your message.
