Based on population data, background information, and conversations with key stakeholders, select personas from the Persona Library to use in the Team Mapping session that align with the care needs of the community or practice. You can also create new personas to reflect other areas of focus if there are no suitable personas in the library. The ISU is happy to support the creation of new personas if needed.

Review ISU Persona Library and Choose Personas that Match Population Clinical Needs

Based on what you know about the clinic or the patient population that the team you are working with supports, choose persona outlines from the ISU Persona Library that might meet their Team Mapping needs. If you are working with a clinic or a specific team within a clinic, you can involve team members in the persona selection as part of the stakeholder interview process.

<aside> ❗ NOTE: We have an extensive Persona Library available online which we update often. You can use your clinical background or work with a clinical lead to create new personas if needed. If you decide to create your own persona, it would be helpful for us and other Team Mapping facilitators if you could share the new persona with us so we can update the existing Persona Library and make it accessible to everyone.
