MANAGE

Patient friendly shared care pathways.

Create manageable objectives that you will set together.

To support the successful management of the shared care partnership, you should introduce a patient implementation plan, providing clear objectives.

A PATIENT FRIENDLY IMPLEMENTATION PLAN, MAY CONSIST OF:

• A care plan based on the planning phase in HO of HOME with clear objectives of both the health care professional and the patient.
• Give the patient a journal to record their shared care activities.
• Provide a patient friendly pathway that they can simply follow.
• Provide an information sheet with potential red flags and when to seek help from you.

Evaluate the effectiveness of every partnership by…

• Identifying when to revisit, reassess a wound and their needs moving forward.
• Photographs of the wound, this can be completed by the patient or carer enabling progress or deterioration to be observed.
• Digital evaluation e.g. via Skype or TEAMs if unable to visit face to face.
• Red flags identified and solution given.
