Capstone: Respond

About

My senior capstone project is called Respond. Respond is about supporting first responders’ health and well-being. The subtitle of the name is First Responder Health (1RH). The target audience is first responders (law enforcement, firefighters, and EMS). A box for police, firefighter, and EMS was created and will contain coordinating gear and designed products specifically for the responders’ job. These boxes will be subscription boxes that customers can subscribe to monthly or bi-monthly. They can choose the box that corresponds with their profession or interest that they will be subscribed to. If the customer does not want to subscribe, then they can simply purchase items from the shop. First Responder Health Risk states, “Public safety jobs can take a toll on physical health. As a first responder, you are at elevated risk of hypertension, diabetes, and obesity. Your chances of having a heart attack (and having one when you’re young) are higher than the general population.”
