In one of the student projects 3 (page 42) the story of the transfer trauma played a central role in the design. These students recognised that the way psychiatric inpatient and outpatient care is organised today holds particular consequences for the individual when they are transitioned from one part of the treatment to the other. This transition is often accompanied by disorientation of the individual in transit, possibly resulting in transfer trauma. To give individuals forward momentum in getting to the next step in their care, this team introduced the metaphor of the “transfer ticket”, turning a referral into a gradual transition. Systematically describing stories is a step to gaining empathic grasp, but design does not stop there. The storytelling offers an understanding of the very fabric of a world, of a group, but most importantly of a person’s life. Giving this understanding shape requires a process of selecting the stories to tap into or, in design terms, a process of selecting the stories to design from. Designers have to select which stories to tell and which stories to highlight. Creating a scenario becomes a unifying endeavour, in which stories of different kinds are combined into a balanced whole. Those selected become the materials used to model a new/alternative story and the solution may get a role in it. Hence the scenario becomes a plot hypothesis in which solutions may become plot devices. Giving agony voice The students presented a set of scenarios in which different kinds of stories strike a balance and together contribute to a fuller picture of how they came to understand the pressing issues in psychiatric care. Their understanding covered the stories of those who seek the assistance of psychiatric care and those who give it. Going further, some of the presentations even critically addressed the way mental illness is regarded as a phenomenon in society at large. However, the stories that addressed those seeking assistance formed 3 Tamara Amalia, Otto Schultz, Sanna Tuononen and Mike Walker 80 · Designing wellbeing through storytelling
Peloton Jokapäivä The vast majority of those recovering from mental illness are financially marginalised and live with unhealthy food everyday, so cooking is very important. The Peloton Jokapäivä (Fearless Everyday) concept offers an open kitchen area where rehabilitants can come, pay a little money, and cook for themselves with the help of volunteers and organisation staff. The volunteers will eventually be change agents in society, reducing the stigma of mental illness and raising private funds for the Peloton Jokapäivä initiative. Peloton Jokapäivä is a nationwide brand that can be adopted by any non-profit organisation offering rehab activities. The open kitchen is adjacent to the activity area, so rehabilitation activities are more easily exposed to all participants. There will also be care professionals from different sectors informally available for patients and each other. This will eventually enhance the care practice in general by having caregivers in different areas learn from one another.
