About

Wound healing is not just a clinical outcome — it’s a critical component of improving healthcare quality measures across the care continuum. Proper wound care can significantly reduce hospital readmissions, prevent complications, and improve patient satisfaction, all of which directly contribute to key performance indicators for healthcare organizations.   

From acute care facilities to home health and outpatient clinics, effective wound management is a cornerstone of patient recovery and long-term health. By addressing both the clinical and operational aspects of wound management, healthcare providers can deliver better outcomes while supporting overall quality improvement initiatives.  

Learning objectives:   

  • Define quality measures that are influenced by effective wound management across the care continuum.  
  • Explore strategies to unlock the healing potential of acute and chronic wounds.  
  • Discover best practices and implementation techniques that drive better patient outcomes.
