What Will You Learn?

  • Detailed anatomy of the skin and underlying tissues, so you understand the “terrain” before you treat.
  • The four classic phases of wound healing: haemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodelling — and how each phase informs clinical decision-making.
  • The principles of wound-bed preparation: debridement, infection and inflammation control, moisture management and edge advancement — the foundation of successful outcomes.
  • Selection and application of appropriate dressings, devices and adjunctive therapies: you’ll become confident in matching the wound’s needs to the right intervention.
  • Critical thinking and clinical reasoning tailored to a variety of wound types and care settings, allowing you to move beyond “one-size-fits-all” and toward personalised, evidence-informed care.
