AI Consultation Technology trial

We want to inform you about an important new aspect of how we may document our consultations. We are trialling a note taking tool called Heidi to accurately and efficiently capture the details of our discussions and the outcomes of our appointments.

Housebound & Older People

District Nurses

District nurses have been at the front line of health care in the community for many years. If you can’t leave your home due to poor health, problems getting around or a long-term condition, your district nurse is here to help.

District Nurses carry out many roles for housebound and older patients, including:

  • General nursing procedures and investigations
  • Post-surgery care
  • Assessment of patients’ needs
  • Care for terminally ill patients
  • Loaning of equipment
  • Looking after wounds and leg ulcers
  • Educating patients about self-care
