Wound Assessment SOP (S62)
The purpose of this document is to provide a clear written procedure for staff to understand what information is required when assessing a wound using the wound assessment template on SystmOne. It will include information about when to refer to different services and key information about individual accountability to the patient in wound care. This document will be available to all nurses in Community Health Services and to new starters. It will provide them with a single reference point for how to assess a wound and action to be taken in the event of problems, concerns or complaints.
Child Visiting Policy (P18)
The aim of this policy is to provide a process for staff when facilitating visits by a child/ren to (Derbyshire Community Health Services FT) DCHS inpatient and day case services, including services where patients are detained under the Mental Health Act (1983). Maintaining effective family contact and dynamics has been shown to often be crucial for a full recovery for people with mental health problems. Health professionals must be aware that the needs of the child come first, and they must not be put at significant risk of harm. Working Together to Safeguard Children (2018) sets out how organisations and individuals should work together to safeguard and promote the welfare of children and young people in accordance with Section 11 of the Children Act 2004. All health professionals and organisations have a key role to play in safeguarding and promoting the welfare of children. Many DCHS services do not directly work with children; staff working within these services may indirectly become involved in the welfare of child visitors as part of their daily case management.
