Patients always remember how you made them feel
We understand that you are often presented
with wounds in difficult to dress areas of the
body and we appreciate the challenges they
bring.
Adhesive Heel Dressing
Take an ALLEVYN Sacrum
dressing 17cm x 17cm.
For highly exuding wounds
select ALLEVYN Plus Adhesive
Sacrum 17cm x 17cm.
Cut 2 incisions either side of
the dressing approximately
5cm deep.
Ensure incisions are angled
upwards as shown.
We recognise the importance to your patient
of having a dressing that remains in place
despite the awkward position of their wound.
Shared here are ideas from your colleagues
from across the Country on how to get the
best from ALLEVYN to help gain control of
difficult to dress wounds.
