AbstractBackground: Chronic wound care represents a considerable burden to patients and the healthcare system, however often goes unrecognised. Through public policy the government directly impacts public health and the health of individuals with the aim of protecting people from potential health risk factors. Healthcare need assessments are of great importance to public policy makers since they provide a status quo of the health needs of a patient population, at a national or local level. Some authors argue that healthcare needs assessments should be legal requirements of public policy.
