Wounds Canada’s National Hybrid Conference, being held October 2-4 at the Westin Harbour Castle, Toronto, Ontario, will showcase Canadian excellence in practice, research, education and industry innovation.
This is the largest wound-related continuing education event in Canada bringing together wound care professionals from across the country and from multiple disciplines to share information, connect with each other and support ongoing personal professional development over three days.
The academic and sponsored sessions, industry exhibits, networking opportunities, poster presentations and conversation cafés are designed to support both frontline health-care professionals and those who make policy, practice and/or funding decisions.
Offered in a hybrid format (in-person and online), the conference offers information presented by expert interdisciplinary speakers on the latest in a wide range of topics relating to skin health, wound prevention and wound management.
