Lymphoedema HealthPathway updated

The Lymphoedema HealthPathway has been reviewed in consultation with specialists from the Mid North Coast Cancer Institute to provide health professionals with current, practical guidance for the assessment and management of lymphoedema.

The revised pathway outlines early recognition, management, and prevention of complications such as infection. It also provides guidance on supporting patient self-management and provides details of local specialist lymphoedema services in our area from the link to the Lymphoedema Therapy pathway.

Health professionals are encouraged to consult the updated lymphoedema HealthPathway to support management of these patients.

Submit your feedback by clicking on the black ‘Send feedback’ button located at the bottom right of the pathway.
