7. 5. Serious Game Approach for Improving Healthcare Logistics

   Author : Chen Zhang; Sebastiaan Meijer; Marcin Wardaszko; KTH; []
   Keywords : NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; Technology and Health; Teknik och hälsa;

   Abstract : Although serious games are central to corporate learning of needed skills for industrial operations sectors, their use for managing healthcare logistics has rarely been discussed from the perspective of game mechanics in terms of motivation, engagement and the achievement of the desired objectives. This thesis discusses serious games as a method for improving healthcare logistics with a case study in paediatric emergency medicine. READ MORE
