Undertaking a trial without catheter in a community setting Guideline and protocol (G93)
A trial without catheter (TWOC) is an essential part of the community nurse role. This routine procedure supports patients to remain within their own homes to receive health care. The Royal Marsden Manual Online of Clinical Nursing Procedures (2018) offers nursing guidance for urinary catheter removal but does not provide guidance for staff on how to undertake a TWOC safely at home or in a community hospital. This Guideline and protocol aims to provide evidence based recommendations to enable a trial without catheter to be undertaken in a community hospital or patients own home by a qualified competent practitioner.
Standard Operating Procedure for DCHS Wound Clinics (S68)
Derbyshire Community Health Services (DCHS) Integrated Community Services (ICS) provides a Wound Care service in clinics across Derbyshire for non-housebound patients. The service continues to evolve in response to evidence-based practice and patient need. The service actively promotes supported care, enabling patients to manage their own wounds, offering wound assessments and reviews via a range of mediums including face to face, telephone or video consultations. These approaches facilitate a more flexible service, support improved access to care and reduce the need for patients to travel to clinics if it is not necessary. The DCHS Wound Clinic Standard Operating Procedure has been developed to support the management of the clinics and the processes that should be adopted to facilitate the safe and effective management of patient care. This procedure will support the consistent management of patient care.
