Thanks Nicole for this very insightful write up! While reading it the first thing that came to my mind was how one of the restructured tertiary care institutes in Singapore was utilising a similar approach of combining medical and social care to reduce the number of readmissions in a group of high risk patients with chronic diseases. They initially piloted it to a small group of patients who were “frequent fliers” at the hospital in 2013, and have fully implemented it since then.

Do you think that this is a direction that the tertiary institutes could be moving too here?
Great article Aaron! I found it especially interesting how they optimise the physical space with the diagonal layout of the aisles. Would you happen to know how much smaller a typical Trader Joe’s store is compared to a typical grocer? Am wondering how much of their higher revenue per square foot in comparison to the other stores can be attributed to the fact that they made the strategic choice to have a smaller footprint!
Like Hyon Bin, I’ve also never noticed the lack of technology during the checkout process, and it was great that you pointed it out
