Course structure

  • Core topics covered in this course include: An understanding of the concepts and practices of wound assessment across a variety of different wound types. Contemporary wound assessment and diagnostic modalities and the role of the digital technologies for wound management. The concepts and practices of routine and advanced wound therapies. Strategic leadership in diverse healthcare environments I definitely wouldn't have chosen rural work if I didn't have the opportunity to do rural placements. A lot of the other universities don't really offer that as well as Murdoch do. Camille Talbott
