RESEARCH
There are a high number of children in Ireland being diagnosed with some sort of learning disability. It is estimat-ed that 1 in 4 children have a learning disability.
There is a lack of Special Needs Assis-tance in Ireland. Approximately 6,550 SNA’s to help children with learnig disabilities. Due to lack of SNA’s children with learning disabilities do not get the attention they need.
There is a lack of com-munication between parent, teacher, occupa-tional therapist etc.
In the modern market there is a higher demand for Ubiquitous comput-ing. There is a greater need and want for tech-nology to becoming more readily available to a user. Wearable technolo-gy is now seen as a fash-ionable thing to own.

The Antelope Watch is an exciting way to help children with autism develop their fine and gross motor skills and organisational skills. Through the inter-active interface of the watch, kids can view tasks that have been set out by parent, guardian, teacher etc and complete such task. A website available to parents, teachers, occupational therapists etc, can set these tasks and goals for the child to complete. Once the task is complete the guardian can reward them accordingly based on their goals.
The watch can be personalised based on the childs preference, this person-alisation includes the material and colour of the watch.

PROBLEM STATEMENT
Poor standards of hygiene and poor use of personal protective equipment in hospitals, lead
to patients contracting hospital acquired infections.
“Healthcare associated infections are one of the lead causes of preventable
harm”

Quaility Authority’s infection and control
practices.
Bacteria are becoming increasingly
resistant to medicine. MRSA, KPC
There is a high cost in treating hospital
acquired infections. Each case can cost the
hospital thousands of euro.
One in ten patients will contract a hospiatls acquired infection

DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS
BRIEF:
To create a product that can store the basic personal protective equipment that nurses and other medical staff need to use on a regular basis before coming in contact with a patient.
Portable Modular Ergonomic

The Cosaint Trolley is a portable unit that holds Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) to be used in hospitals and other healthcare environments. The unit
promotes compliance with the Health Information and Quality Authority (HIQA) infection and control practices that help reduce the spread of Hospital Acquired
Infections. The ergonomically designed PPE dispensing system allows for PPE products to be readily accessible and encourages hand sanitising and donning of
PPE.
The unit was created to assist medical staff as they attend their patients without the need to go to various locations throughout the hospital where PPEs are stored.
The Cosaint Trolley holds examining glove dispensers, protective apron dispensers, smaller drawers for holding things such as masks, goggles, shoe coverings, head
covers. The unit has capacity to hold waste bins, a disinfectant hand gel dispenser and an area where nurses can make notes etc.
Despite Progress, Ongoing Efforts Needed to Combat Infections Impacting Hospital Patients’.
