Tissue Viability (skin and soft tissue wounds)

The Tissue Viability service provides specialist evidence-based advice on caring for skin and the management of wounds that are complex in nature and are failing to respond to treatment. We provide advice to patients, families, carers and healthcare professionals.

Tissue Viability visits take place in a variety of care settings which include independent clinics, community hospitals, care homes, GP surgeries and patients' own homes.
