Films

A series of films for the support of lymphoedema patients

The films are created by courtesy of the Lymphoedema Network Wales Framework and are produced by PocketMedic, a digital platform that allows clinicians in primary, secondary or community care to send film-based prescriptions to patients to help manage their chronic disease.

The films are designed to help people understand what is happening to them and how they can start to work with their clinicians to play a greater role in self-managing their health. Peer-to-peer sharing of experiences along with explanations from medical experts are used to help engage the audience. Language is straightforward, the environment and style is relaxed and homely, and graphic illustration makes thing clear – and sometimes even makes you smile!

Lymphoedema films for people living and working with lymphoedema

We invite you to watch a short series of films on how to live with lymphoedema. The films are created by courtesy of the Lymphoedema Network Wales Framework and are produced by PocketMedic. The films can be watched on mobile phones, tablets or PCs. Each film has been created by NHS healthcare professionals in the UK and their patients, to help with understanding lymphoedema and to support self-management.
