Popis: The quality of life of people with slow-healing wounds is a multi-faceted concept which focuses on the functioning of patients in many spheres of life.Two characteristics of patients qualified for long-term homecare nursing are multi-morbidities and senior age. The coexistence of several chronic diseases, including atherosclerosis, is associated with the presence of a number of healing and caring problems, for example, slow-healing wounds. The social security in Poland in the domain of long-term homecare nursing is at a very low level, as reported by the Central Statistical Office in 2015, with only 4 out of 1000 people using long-term nursing care in a home environment.
