Wound Awareness Week 2019 - Let's Talk About Wounds


Nationwide

Wound Awareness Week is raising awareness of chronic wounds across Australia.  This year’s theme “Let’s Talk About Wounds” encourages people to start a conversation with their health professionals about hard to heal wounds. It is important that the community at large can identify the wound warning signs (pain, fluid, smell, over 30 days to heal), know who is most at risk from chronic wounds, and what action to take if they have a wound that won’t heal.
