Problem solving for improved wound care

This session explores the expectations that need to be met in wound management today. These include the economic pressure for greater efficiencies in achieving more with fewer resources. There are also important expectations for patients that include effective clinical treatment and improved quality of life during and after treatment. Finally there are the professional expectations of wound specialists, who must demonstrate better results, greater accountability and added value while attracting additional resources.

This session will help you to break down the barriers preventing you from meeting these expectations by identifying: which challenges stop you from improving patient care? What skills and resources you need? Who and what could help? You will learn how to benefit from a range of simple but effective practical tools that are designed to help you tackle specific clinical problems that you may be facing. The use of frequently encountered clinical scenarios will provide you with a useful, systematic process for problem solving and you will be encouraged to bring along and work on real issues that are causing your organisation problems in clinical practice.
