Abstract

Dr Debbie Bean worked with Jannisa Seck from AUT’s School of Art and Design to create a resource that uses visual communication to aid patient understanding and convey the experience of chronic pain. Pain is a universal phenomenon, yet it is difficult to understand and put into words. Previous studies have underscored the effectiveness of visuals, such as illustrations and graphics, in patient education to make information less overwhelming and easier to digest. Additionally, stories in healthcare can be a powerful tool for conveying information and supporting patients.
