Development of a district-wide teledermatology service

Sandra Lawton et al. Nurs Times. 2004 Apr.

Abstract

Demand for dermatology services is increasing, resulting in changes in service provision and the role of nurses. Technological advances have led to the development of telemedicine. This article describes how four primary care trusts and the dermatology department at Queen's Medical Centre developed a district-wide teledermatology service. The service was led by nurses and a GP with a special interest in dermatology.
