In the current financial climate where resources in the National Health Service are becoming increasingly limited, it is essential that the role of the pediatric dermatology nurse specialist remains appreciated and supported. Our pediatric dermatology nurse specialist was first employed in September 2002 having had 6 years experience nursing children with a wide variety of dermatologic conditions prior to her employment. She achieved her pediatric community nursing degree in 2003 undertaking the nurse prescribing extended formulary course in 2006, her training history representative of many nurse specialists. We present the results of an audit highlighting how the employment of our pediatric dermatology nurse specialist has led to a decrease in hospital admissions as well as providing a significant positive impact on waiting lists.
