Abstract

The WCET™ recently held its very successful 21th Congress in Cape Town, South Africa. WCET™ nursing practice involves the prevention and treatment of skin and wound problems. Advocating for care models that can enhance the treatment of wounds or prevent them entirely is therefore an important part of the work of WCET™.
