On Worldwide Pressure Injury Prevention Day, Nurses Specialized in Wound, Ostomy, and Continence Canada (NSWOCC) reaffirms its commitment to enhancing skin health and preventing all wounds including pressure injuries in post-acute care settings, including long-term care, community, and primary care.
To demonstrate this dedication, and to recognize the role that Personal Support Workers, Healthcare Assistants, and Caregivers play in pressure injury prevention, NSWOCC is proud to offer 200 free registrations to the Personal Support Worker (PSW) and Caregiver Skin Health Course. This will be done on a first come first served basis.
This initiative aims to support skin health and wound prevention for our most vulnerable populations.
We invite you to take advantage of this free education, and/or to share this message with your peers and colleagues who may be interested in taking advantage of the education themselves.
The course is made for Personal Support Workers (PSW), Healthcare Assistants, and Caregivers who are dedicated to addressing the unique challenges faced by patients dealing with MASD, skin tears, and pressure injuries.
