TOPIC: Alone But Not Incapable (The importance of tools and assessment skills for the travel nurse)
Having a limited interdisciplinary team or being located in a remote location will not limit your care provided for people living with diabetic foot and lower leg wounds. Please join Veronica Roberge as she discusses valid and reliable wound assessment tools, assessment skills and address what to do when a key interdisplinary team member is missing. This session will provide an overview of best practice recommendations for the prevention and management of diabetic foot ulcers and lower leg wounds and address diabetic foot management in indigenous populations. The session facilitates open discussion for participants to discuss local questions and concerns
