Occupational hand eczema (OHE) is common in 'wet work' occupations. Thus, effective and sustainable prevention strategies are needed.To investigate the long-term effectiveness (sustainability) of an interdisciplinary secondary programme.One hundred thirty-four patients with OHE consecutively participated outpatient skin protection seminar comprising dermatological educational interventions. Data were obtained at baseline (T0) 9 months (T1) 5 years (T2) after participation. A cohort 84 was...
Healthcare has become more complex in recent years. Such complexity can best be addressed by interprofessional teams. We argue that to ensure successful communication and cooperation teams, it is important establish education health-related study programs. More precisely, we students programs need develop competencies a common language, experience contact, build inclusive identities beliefs the benefit of diversity. give examples how these goals implemented education. also discuss challenges...
Scientifically based prevention and patient management concepts in occupational dermatology have substantially improved during recent years. Currently the public statutory employers' liability insurance bodies fund a multi-step intervention approach designed to provide quick preventive help for all levels of severity dermatoses. An administrative guideline (hierarchical procedure skin diseases--"Stufenverfahren Haut") insures professional support optimal orientation by insurers'...

To evaluate long‐term effectiveness secondary in geriatric nurses. Patients/Methods. One hundred two nurses with hand eczema participated an interdisciplinary programme [intervention group (IG)]. Members control (CG) (n = 107) were medically treated by local dermatologists. Six years after intervention (T2), data on job continuation, skin lesions...
