Project overview
RISE-UP
The Recognizing, Identifying and Supporting the Engagement of Youth Providing Care (RISE-UP) project at the University Health Network surveyed Canadian healthcare providers to assess their ability to identify, recognize, and support young carers in their practice.
Toolkit
The toolkit is a 17-page PDF intended to help healthcare providers recognize and support young carers. It was developed to (A) act as a knowledge translation tool and (B) address gaps in support for young carers. Its creation was informed by survey findings and co-design workshops with young carers, healthcare providers, and caregiver organizations.
Infographic
The infographic was supplementary material created for the RISE-UP project. See how it fits into the project timeline on the bottom right.
Thumbnailing & Drafting
Thumbnails and initial drafts were created in Miro, allowing the research team to easily collaborate, review, and provide feedback. Textual content was also written and edited directly in Miro.
Illustration
Illustrations were created earlier in the project during toolkit development. The visual style, content, and colour palette were chosen based on input from the research team and the young carer advisory group. For the infographic, existing illustrations were reused.
Design Considerations
Colour & Contrast
The colour palette was optimized for colour-blind accessibility. The colours of key design elements were contrast checked using the WebAIM contrast checker.
Minimizing Cognitive Load
Several strategies were used to reduce cognitive load, such as chunking and grouping information, using a clear information hierarchy, and keeping design elements consistent throughout the infographic.
