Primary care is under increasing pressure to bridge the gap between demand and resources, with national and local priorities focusing on frailty and unscheduled care. This article outlines the implementation of the district nurse advanced nurse practitioner role within NHS Greater Glasgow and Clyde and presents findings from a local evaluation. By exploring the impact across the four pillars of advanced practice-clinical practice, research and development, facilitation of learning and leadership-the early findings suggest that this innovative role has had a transformational impact on optimising primary care provision and reducing avoidable hospital admissions for patients on a district nursing caseload. Further research into this role is necessary to ensure that its contribution is comprehensively measured, strengthening the case for recognising this highly skilled role as a key player in NHS Scotland's primary and community health care systems.</p>","PeriodicalId":35731,"journal":{"name":"British Journal of Community Nursing","volume":"30 2","pages":"76-82"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-02-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143080827","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A Velcro system and an integrated loop ensures patients can easily and quickly take Biflex Self Adjust on and off. Biflex Self Adjust uses a patented integrated device that allows healthcare professionals and patients to easily adjust the pressure. In addition, Biflex Self Adjust completely covers the limb using an optimised number of overlapping bandages, which helps prevent oedema migration. The open-cell foam used in Biflex Self Adjust allows moisture transfer, which enhances comfort. Case studies illustrate the effectiveness of the Biflex Self Adjust in clinical practice.</p>","PeriodicalId":35731,"journal":{"name":"British Journal of Community Nursing","volume":"30 2","pages":"60-66"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-02-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143081435","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Despite the high incidence of these injuries, the majority of those exposed do not develop serious illnesses. However, the financial impact of these injuries on the healthcare system is substantial, including both direct costs (such as treatment and testing) and indirect costs like staff absenteeism.

Intrinsic aging leads to thinner, drier and less elastic skin with fine wrinkles, while extrinsic factors such as sun exposure, smoking and environmental stresses amplify these changes. Photo-ageing, in particular, causes deep wrinkles, uneven pigmentation and increases the risk of skin cancers. Age-related alterations in skin structure and function include thinning of the epidermis, reduced collagen and elastin and changes in fat distribution, all of which compromise the skin's barrier and mechanical properties. These changes not only increase the susceptibility to conditions such as xerosis, fungal infections and atopic dermatitis but also carry psychological implications. Interestingly, atopic dermatitis, often associated with childhood, has a secondary peak in older adults and may be linked to neurodegenerative conditions such as Alzheimer's disease. This article explores the interplay between skin aging, dermatological diseases, and their broader physical and emotional impacts.</p>","PeriodicalId":35731,"journal":{"name":"British Journal of Community Nursing","volume":"30 1","pages":"36-39"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2025-01-02","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142910954","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
