ABSTRACT
Providing a co-ordinated and strategic approach to the assessment, treatment and management of chronic wounds in healthcare is central to the provision of effective nursing practice and optimisation of resources in community nursing. This article describes a project conducted in Northumberland by a tissue viability team and a district nursing team to implement an evidence-based treatment pathway for patients with leg ulcers. It discusses the multiple positive benefits of this project-to the NHS, nursing staff and patients-and provides detailed information for other nursing teams to implement such a plan.
