On January 5th, 2009, the Nursing School of Coimbra will organise the “Meeting on Wounds…from prevention to treatment!”.
The following are the themes suggested for this Meeting “The importance of the provision of care in the treatment of wounds”, “Chronic diseases – multidisciplinary approach in prevention and treatment”, “The outpatient surgery: an emerging reality” and “Natural methods for the treatment of wounds”. This meeting will take place on Campus B of the ESEnfC (see program).
According to the commission responsible for organising this meeting, the diversity of new materials in the market, which may be used for the prevention and treatment of wounds, demands a closer look by all professionals providing health care.
Therefore, this meeting aims at creating an interchange of knowledge and good practices among the people interested in the area of prevention and treatment of wounds, an area which requires the nurse to be constantly updated.
The meeting will begin at 9 a.m. and the opening session will be conducted by the president of the Directing Board of the ESEnfC, Professor Maria da Conceição Bento, and the coordinator of the Scientific-Pedagogical Unit of Medical-Surgical Nursing, Professor Luísa Pinto Coelho.
