Wound Care Service Models in Community Nursing

How can lower limb wound care service models provide help for an overstretched community workforce? 

This event focussed on workforce challenges in community nursing and innovative solutions that can provide the release of resources by using an advanced model of self-care.

The speakers explored how tailored education and support can reduce face-to-face appointments to every six weeks rather than 2-3 appointments per week whilst maintaining patient outcomes.
