    Case Studies: Flare Management

    See below for examples of best practice, from services and healthcare professionals using innovation to meet the IBD Standards.

    Rapid access clinic, NHS Lothian

    A rapid access clinic was established in Western General Hospital. IBD nurse specialists staffing the advice line and community clinics can refer patients directly into the flare clinic, where staff can see patients on the day to prevent a hospital admission.
