PRESS RELEASE

 

 

LAUNCH OF NEW ‘MANAGEMENT OF AGEING SKIN’ GUIDELINES

 

Text Box: New guidelines have been launched to help healthcare professionals effectively manage older patients with common skin disorders such as incontinence dermatitis. The ‘Guideline for the Management of Ageing Skin’ has been developed by an independent group of dermatology specialists, including the Chair of Primary Care Dermatology Society (PCDS) and a Professional Officer for the British Dermatological Nursing Group (BDNG).

 

The aim of the guidelines is to assist healthcare professionals in understanding ageing skin and to promote the important issues when caring for older people’s skin.

 

In addition, the guideline also offers advice on how to prevent, recognise and treat incontinence dermatitis as well as offering links to resources and organisations which will offer further information.

 

To receive free copies of the Guideline for the Management of Ageing Skin, please contact hsdcommunications on 01923 777277 or email info@hsdcomm.com. Alternatively, you can download the guidelines via http://www.hsdcomm.com/dloads/medical/Ageing-Skin-2007-11-15.pdf

 

These guidelines were sponsored by an educational grant from Forest Laboratories (UK) Ltd.
