UnWRapped
Wound Care UnWRapped is our new weekly podcast dedicated to peeling back the layers of wound care and addressing the questions that too often go unspoken. Each episode explores the evidence, the challenges and the uncomfortable truths behind practice, policy, innovation, education and patient experience.
We bring together a diverse range of voices from across the field (clinicians, researchers, educators, industry leaders, innovators and policy makers) to facilitate honest, insightful and thought- provoking conversations. Guests share their expertise, experiences and perspectives, offering listeners a behind-the-scenes look at the realities of wound care.
Episodes cover a wide spectrum of topics, including patient advocacy, clinical practice, emerging technologies, education and training, economic and policy consideration and more. Our goal is to uncover what’s working, what isn’t, and what needs to change.
