Abstract

The Scottish Photobiology Service (SPS), hosted in the Photobiology Unit at Ninewells Hospital, Dundee, celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2023. Dedicated to providing diagnostic and therapeutic services for individuals with cutaneous photosensitivity disorders, the SPS has consistently sought to improve patient care. In 2015, the Chief Medical Officer for Scotland, published a national report entitled 'Realistic Medicine', which challenged medical practitioners to improve patient care through the development of personalised approaches, with patients placed at the centre of their care. In 2019, the SPS initiated a patient engagement programme aimed at better understanding the needs of patients with photosensitivity conditions, underpinning the objectives of the Realistic Medicine concept. This article outlines the development, implementation and outcomes of this initiative, which has become a core function of the service. Through ongoing collaboration with patients and staff, the programme has informed service improvements, addressed key issues such as referral delays, peer support and educational resources, and fostered an inclusive approach to care.

通过加强以患者为中心的护理实现现实医学:苏格兰光生物学服务的方法,以光敏性疾病的患者参与。
苏格兰光生物服务中心(SPS)于2023年庆祝成立50周年,该中心位于邓迪尼恩威尔斯医院的光生物部门。SPS致力于为皮肤光敏性疾病患者提供诊断和治疗服务,一直致力于改善患者护理。2015年,苏格兰首席医疗官发表了一份题为“现实医学”的国家报告,要求医务人员通过发展个性化方法改善患者护理,将患者置于其护理的中心。2019年,SPS启动了一项患者参与计划,旨在更好地了解光敏性患者的需求,为现实医学概念的目标奠定基础。本文概述了该计划的开发、实现和结果,该计划已成为该服务的核心功能。通过与患者和工作人员的持续合作,该方案为改善服务提供了信息,解决了转诊延误、同伴支持和教育资源等关键问题,并促进了一种包容性的护理方法。
