Abstract

As part of its therapeutic patient education program, the Avicenne hospital in the Paris region invites patients with an autoimmune bullous disease to a workshop dedicated to local skin and mucous membrane care. Together, a nurse, patient partners and patients review best practices in hygiene care and treatment of the skin, eyes, nose, mouth, genitals and anus. This is essential for healing lesions and avoiding local complications.
