Seoul National University Hospital's Home Healthcare Clinic successfully held its fall training course on November 6th, under the theme of 'The Reality of Treating Home Healthcare Patients,' to strengthen the practical capabilities of home healthcare service providers.
This training course shared the latest insights on various topics (the reality of hospital-based home healthcare, rehabilitation therapy for brain-lesioned patients at home, and pressure ulcer and wound management) that are helpful in the field for healthcare professionals participating in home healthcare. Approximately 83 healthcare professionals from various regions across the country who are currently providing or intend to provide home healthcare attended, and the quality of hands-on training was improved by limiting the number of participants.
The course consisted of two parts, with lectures given by specialized medical staff from Seoul National University Hospital. Part 1 included theoretical lectures on the topics of ▲The Necessity and Reality of Hospital-Based Home Healthcare (Professor Seon-young Lee, Home Healthcare Clinic, Nurse Hye-yeon Lee, Home Nursing Project Team) ▲Rehabilitation Therapy for Brain-Lesioned Patients at Home (Rehabilitation Therapist Ki-ho Kim, Department of Rehabilitation Medicine Therapy Room) ▲The Latest Insights on Pressure Ulcer Management (Professor Sang-hwa Kim, Department of Plastic Surgery) ▲Wound Management and Dressings (Wound Care Nurse Jin-hee Yang).
Part 2 featured hands-on practice on the topics of ▲Deep Pressure Ulcer Dressing Simulation (Wound Care Nurse Jin-hee Yang) ▲Foam Dressing Application Simulation (Professor Kye-hyung Kim, Home Healthcare Clinic, etc.) ▲Negative Pressure Wound Therapy Simulation (Professor In-young Hwang, Home Healthcare Clinic, etc.), which received a great response.
Cho Bi-ryong, Head of the Public Healthcare Center, said, "We will continue to strengthen the professionalism and system of home healthcare so that patients who have difficulty visiting the hospital in person can receive high-quality medical services at home, and we will lead the development of home healthcare."
Meanwhile, Seoul National University Hospital has been providing hospital-based home healthcare services since 2020, the first tertiary general hospital in Korea to do so, and the Home Healthcare Clinic team holds symposiums and training courses every year to share the latest knowledge in the field of home healthcare.
