Mole and Lesion Checks - Nursing Roles & Responsibilities

 Supporting Healthcare Workers

We have collaborated with The Royal College of Nursing (RCN) in creating a Roles & Responsibilities guide for Mole and Lesion checks (see below)

Practitioners at all levels are encouraged to endorse or advocate for limiting UV exposure by avoiding sunbeds, adopting sun safety practices, and regular skin self checks or monitoring of lesions and moles.

See also an RCN feature here which includes the ABCDE guide for mole checks and a video message from Callum Metcalfe-O’Shea (RCN UK Professional Lead).
