SWSPHN recently hosted a CPD event for practice nurses, focusing on wound management and best practice care.
The workshop explored the stages of wound healing, highlighted the latest developments in wound hygiene and wound bed preparation, and provided practical insights to support high-quality patient outcomes.
Attendees also participated in a hands-on activity using cucumbers to simulate debridement, bringing learning to life in an engaging and interactive way. The exercise reinforced key techniques and built confidence in applying skills in a clinical setting.
Practice nurses across South Western Sydney are encouraged to keep an eye on their weekly CPD emails for upcoming opportunities to further develop their skills and knowledge.
