SKIN TEARS - ISSUES AND MANAGEMENT
Tuesday 10 MARCH, 7pm – 8pm
SASHA DRENNAN
Clinical Nurse Manager and Vice President of the New Zealand Wound Care Society
Skin tears are among the most common wounds encountered in healthcare, yet they are often underestimated in terms of complexity and impact. Effective management from the very first moment is crucial to reduce complications, promote healing, and protect patient comfort.
In this session, Sasha will share her extensive expertise in wound care. With a career spanning from theatre to district nursing, she combines practical clinical knowledge with a passion for equitable access to care.
This webinar will explore:
• An introduction to skin tears and why they matter
• Immediate actions after a skin tear occurs
• Wound assessment essentials
• Dressing selection and application
• Ongoing management and follow-up care
• Prevention strategies for reducing recurrence
Join us to strengthen your confidence in assessing and treating skin tears, and to bring best-practice approaches back into your everyday clinical work.
