For People With Diabetes-Related Foot Disease During The COVID-19 Pandemic
The following clinical guide is to help Australian clinicians who are triaging and caring for people with DFD during the escalating COVID-19 situation. This guide is designed to support iHRFS and DFD clinicians, as well as primary care providers and community podiatry, on suggested acceptable alternative processes of care provision. They include considerations for service type and frequency according to factors such as the patient’s limb and/or life threatening status, local staffing and resource availability, as well as for minimising risk of COVID-19 infection.
