Outline

Palliative wounds can cause serious physical, psychological and social pain.

This workshop is designed to enhance nurses’ knowledge and clinical skills in the holistic management of fungating wounds by understanding their underlying causes, selecting appropriate dressings, and implementing strategies to alleviate physical and psychological symptoms, thereby improving patient comfort and quality of life.

Taking place at St Christopher’s CARE, our expert nursing team will provide small groups of learners with a thorough introduction to the principles and practice of the complex and challenging issue of holistic wound management.

This two-hour skills workshop will include a theoretical presentation, case studies and time for a Q&A, as well as provide learners with everything they need to create an effective and holistic wound management care plan. Our expert tutors will also support you with ways of identifying common symptoms and the practicalities of fungating wound management.
