Gamifying ANT’s Women’s Program for Cancer Prevention
ANT (www.ant.it) = Italian Non Profit Organization for Free Medical Assistance and Cancer Prevention
GOALS
obtain more funds ANT is currently funded with private and company donations and with the revenue from events
like flower and handcraft sales.
get more women to participate ANT’s current cancer prevention program for women includes free gynecological visits in the few ANT
centers available often they are far away and have no flexible hours. The visits are free for employees of
sponsoring companies.
TARGET
The Modern day Woman
Whether she likes it or not she juggles the care for a family with two small kids, a husband, eldery parents and a dog with the stress of a fulltime career, the household chores, and the need to have clean hair, manicured hands and toned legs.
At night she wakes up worried because she can’t remember the last time she had a smear test or a mammogram and although she knows that Italy’s healthcare system takes care of most of the costs she dreads the enormous waiting lists for such visits but knows she better avoids (Italian) hospitals and therefor the importance of prevention and regular screenings.
She also knows that tomorrow she will shrug and think she will take care of it Saturday between the laundry and the supermarket run.
APP
The Modern day Woman’s disease prevention APP
Instead of limiting the free screening to a registration on the website and a list of centers the idea is to create an app where woman can:
see a lists of screenings they should do according to their age group
watch videos regarding prevention and first aid manage their screenings inserting dates and types and next
visits receive a notice when they need to schedule next screenings can look for the nearest ANT center or the nearest Medical
Center and ring them with one click
