Sammanfattning
Background:
Disaster events are rare, limiting opportunities for healthcare systems to train and evaluate disaster preparedness. Simulation tools such as the Emergo Train System (ETS) enable training and testing of healthcare response under controlled conditions, emphasizing resource management and decision-making in high-demand scenarios.

Objective:
To explore how a service design perspective can enhance the value creation processes of the Emergo Train System, and to identify design improvements that support its use, including adaptations for low- and middle-income countries (LMICs).
To explore how a service design perspective can enhance the value creation processes of the Emergo Train System, and to identify design improvements that support its use, including adaptations for low- and middle-income countries (LMICs).
Results:
Using a design ethnography approach with observations, interviews, and workshops, the study identified that ETS primarily provides value as a service by enabling training in disaster medical management. Key strengths include flexibility, realism, collaboration, and iterative development. Several design proposals were developed to support value creation, including a shared exercise bank, simulation-based planning tools, improved communication platforms, digital tools for patient data management, and structured introduction materials. Additionally, adaptations for LMIC contexts were proposed, focusing on resource limitations, reduced material complexity, and localized production.

Conclusion:
Applying a service design perspective provides a systematic approach to understanding and improving complex training systems like ETS. The proposed design interventions can strengthen training effectiveness, support collaboration, and enhance global applicability, ultimately contributing to improved preparedness and patient safety.
