The NWCSP has been commissioned by the NHS England Nursing Directorate to develop a Leg Ulcer Best Practice Bundle and we would like to invite health and care professionals, providers, commissioners, people with wounds, carers and wound product suppliers to share their views on this first draft.
The Best Practice Bundle is based on evidence-based practice, learning from the NWCSP Pilot Implementation Sites and Health Innovation Network’s Transforming Wound Care Programme. It is intended to complement the wider NWCSP Leg Ulcer Recommendations by supporting providers, commissioners and practitioners to implement change that will have most impact. It brings together five evidence-based elements of care, which when performed collectively, significantly improve healing rates, reduce recurrence rates and limb loss, improve patient experience and reduce the use of NHS resources and costs.
To share your feedback, please complete our survey before it closes 6pm on the 11th of December.
*As the NWCSP is an NHS England initiative, we can only open consultations to stakeholders who live or work in England. If you are living or working outside England but have useful information that you would like to share with the NWCSP, please email NatWoundStrat@mft.nhs.uk
