This paper reports experiences with applying UCD methods obtained during the development of a wearable prototype for the ward round in a hospital. Considering the non-computer related primary task in the design of the wearable system introduces a number of issues to applying existing UCD methods. This paper identifies a number of challenges that arise using specific UCD methods, as well as challenges that cut across the whole UCD process. These challenges and their implications are briefly discussed. However, the main focus lies on uncovering the breadth of problems.
