WOUNDS CANADA INSTITUTE

Wounds Canada is committed to providing the best wound care resources available to health-care professionals across Canada... Established in 1995, Wounds Canada is a charitable organization dedicated to the advancement of wound prevention and management. We accomplish this by advocating for a population health approach that promotes best practices to support persons at risk of or living with wounds, health decision makers and frontline clinicians. We develop and provide educational programs and resources as well as support research to further advance this holistic, risk-based approach. We foster relationships with interested individuals and organizations to expand and sustain a robust wound community in Canada that also has mutually beneficial global connections. Our goal is to reduce the prevalence and incidence of wounds of all types and the negative consequences they bring-including patient suffering and wasted health-care dollars.
