Acute Admissions

Studies demonstrate 67% of elderly patients can have dermatoses, which could result in functional and psychological consequences. Elderly presentations are further complicated by comorbidities and polypharmacy. This combined with limited dermatology training at undergraduate and postgraduate levels creates diagnostic challenges. This project investigated dermatology assessments by trainees using the Trust’s acute medical admissions proforma. 100 proforma were reviewed for skin assessments alongside nursing skin care bundles. Subsequently, a skin survey was conducted amongst trainees evaluating knowledge and confidence when diagnosing and managing common dermatoses. Successively, a dermatology teaching series was delivered. Post-intervention the above were reassessed, demonstrating improvements in most areas. The dermatology teaching series will continue alongside a Trust hospital guideline to sustain improvements in dermatological care on admission.
