Blueprint personas

EIP on AHA partners created a set of 12 Blueprint personas. These aimed at identifying the health and care needs of the population. The persona profiles included aspects of a persona's daily life, such as family life, interests and hobbies, and medications taken.

The Blueprint personas have proved highly effective and a number of organisations have reused them to:

• improve care pathways
• visualise end users
• identify needs
• help to analyse processes, data, roles and financial flows
• train and educate healthcare professionals and other health and care actors
• To enable further organisations to reap the benefits of the personas, a Guide to selecting and using a Blueprint persona has been developed.

Italian translations of the personas, created in the autonomous province of Trento as part of the ProMIS network, are also available here: https://www.trentinosalute.net/Aree-tematiche/Innovazione-e-ricerca/Internazionalizzazione-del-sistema-sanitario/Blueprint.

The personas list is as follows:

• Rose (child, generally well)
• Leila (working age adult, generally well)
• Randolph (retired, generally well)
• Teresa (aged 80+, generally well)
