Education supporting the ambitions of the National Wound Care Strategy Programme – an update

Objectives

After attending this session, persons will be able to:

  • Understand the education resources that have been developed to support wound care knowledge and skills development; where to access them and how they are being used in practice
  • Have awareness of how the National Wound Care Core Capability Framework for England is being used to develop individuals, teams and services
  • Consider the importance of wound care education in pre-registration programmes

Abstract

One of the National Wound Care Strategy Programme’s ambitions is that every patient-facing health and care practitioner should have a minimum of tier 1 wound care knowledge as skill, as defined in the National Wound Care Core Capabilities Framework for England

Education is key to enabling this, along with a programme of work to change organisational and professional wound care cultures. We are working collaboratively across professions to develop a suite of quality, education resources, to enable every health and care practitioner to develop their wound care knowledge and skills throughout their career.
