Perception Scale
Data collected on PharmOutcomes shows that
29.2% of those 24 consultations had not
spoken to anyone before about the problem.
66.7% had never used a fluid diary before. This
means that we could be helping a lot of
people with self-care of continence problems
and aid management of the condition.
A very promising start! Well Done HLPs!

Training Event for HLP Skin Care Awareness
We are pleased to announce that Leo Pharma have agreed to support our Skin Awareness
Health Campaign which is scheduled for August and September. Michelle Sloss,
Dermatology Account Manager for Staffordshire will be providing a training session to
demonstrate the fantastic self-care tools and Apps for patients to enable them to manage
their condition. Resources will be handed out to Pharmacies on the evening to facilitate
the promotion of this campaign.
LEO Pharma is a global pharmaceutical company headquartered in Denmark, dedicated to
helping people achieve healthy skin. Being owned by the LEO Foundation, with no external
shareholders, profits are re-invested back to develop new patient focused solutions.
Within dermatology LEO delivers treatments for psoriasis, eczema, actinic keratosis, acne
and skin infections.
LEO Pharma is also committed to helping healthcare providers deliver quality patient care
and improved outcomes through partnerships with the NHS & HSE and patients along with
the provision of comprehensive support and education. The company recently launched a
holistic digital solution, QualityCare™, to support people living with psoriasis and actinic
keratosis. As part of this programme, a new free app, MyPso, is also available to help
people living with psoriasis to download from the Apple App Store or Google Play.
Features for users include the opportunity to track progress; take pictures of their
psoriasis; become part of a psoriasis community and share a report on triggers and
symptoms with their healthcare professional to help both get the best out of their
consultation and agree the best individual plan. For more info visit:
