Survey respondents (n = 7 for surveys 1 and 2 and n = 36 for survey 3) had no or minimal experience with human-centred design. Faculty respondents indicated it helped engaging various stakeholders, particularly in intervention development. Key lessons learned included: (1) the importance of designer involvement from study conception, (2) distinguishing a design strategist's skillset from strictly visual design, (3) challenges during the ethical review processes, and (4) sustainability of resources. The dynamic approach of human-centred design has benefited our efforts to advance the science of caring for individuals with multiple chronic conditions.
