Area of Science:

  • Wound Care
  • Healthcare Service Development
  • Patient Outcomes

Background:

  • Complex and chronic wounds present significant challenges in healing.
  • Standard wound care may be insufficient for non-progressing wounds.
  • A dedicated service can address the multifaceted needs of these patients.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To describe the development of a dedicated multidisciplinary complex/chronic wound care service.
  • To assess and address the needs of patients with complex/chronic wounds.
  • To evaluate the benefits of a specialized wound care team.

Main Methods:

  • Utilized a recognized framework for service development.
  • Conducted patient needs assessment.
  • Implemented a multidisciplinary complex/chronic wound care service.
