Programme Outline
As healthcare providers strive to enhance the quality of life for individuals facing serious, life-limiting illnesses, effective wound care, though often overlooked, becomes crucial in alleviating discomfort and preventing complications. The sharing will cover the unique challenges associated with managing complex wounds in palliative settings, including the interplay of pain management, symptom control, and the emotional needs of patients and their families. Attendees will gain insights into evidence-based practices for wound assessment and treatment, with strategies for integrating patient-centred care that respects individual values and preferences.
We will also examine how nutritional and wound care goals evolve throughout the palliative care journey. The presentation addresses common nutritional challenges that palliative patients face, exploring how these issues affect both overall well-being and wound healing capacity. Practical guidance will be provided on developing stage-appropriate nutrition plans that maintain patient comfort throughout their palliative care journey, ensuring that interventions remain aligned with evolving care goals and patient preferences.
