Guidelines
NHS Plus evidence based guidelines
NHS Plus has commissioned evidence based guidelines on the following topics, designed to ensure OH practitioners provide the highest quality health at work services.
Dermatitis concise guidance
The Health and Work Development Unit, supported by NHS Plus, has developed concise guidance on the management of dermatitis which summarises three sets of guidance from the Occupational Health Clinical Effectiveness Unit, the British Occupational Health Research Foundation and the British Association of Dermatologists respectively. It is aimed at physicians in primary and secondary care, covering the clinical aspects of case management but also drawing attention to the important actions they should take to address the workplace issues, either in liaison with an occupational health provider or in the absence of occupational health input.
