Elevating Financial Experiences: Dello Fintech Banking App's Impact and Future Endeavors
We started off with desktop research online where we really wanted to learn more about loneliness and how it effects people as they age. The term "loneliness" is very broad and so many factors can effect a senior and how lonely they are. So, through our research we wanted to better understand the factors and the statistics.
Depression and loneliness are not the same thing.
Loneliness causes an increase risk for dementia.
29% increase of heart risk, 32% increase of stroke.

43% seniors felt lonely, yet only 18% lived alone.

We also interviewed health care professionals from CVS pharmacy, Oak St. Health, and Aetna who worked alongside seniors in their day to day lives. Through these interviews we were able to better understand not only health care models but also about how there are so many other factors that determine the care seniors recieve as they age and how much access seniors actually have to these resources that could help with their loneliness.

To progress our understanding further we developed a strategy blueprint where we identified our key users as well as what we wanted our design outcomes to be. We also researched into existing health care models as well as how doctor offices were identifying loneliness in seniors currently.

To develop our archetypes we approached them with determining ADLs which were basically how we classified the different skill levels (functioning capabilities of seniors) as well as creating behavioral continuums which was how we grouped and created the archetypes to create categories of what we were looking for.

We then placed the metrics on a series of continuums to identify patterns that can indicate someone who is vulnerable to social isolation.
We actually created about 50 continuums, and the physician was used by physician we worked with in her thesis.

Key Takeaways
Key Takeaways
Through this project, I really enjoyed applying research methodologies like strategy blueprints, behavioral continuums, and service blueprints to inform and inspire design features. It was especially meaningful to design for a vulnerable, underserved population and see how design can be a force for good in addressing real-life challenges.
As both project manager and designer, it was exciting to bring together different skill sets of research, strategy, and design and to shape a solution that felt purposeful and impactful. Seeing it all come together in the end was incredibly rewarding.
