Wounds Canada Wound Care Champion Program

Wounds Canada is now accepting applications to the Accredited Wound Care Champion Program (WCCP) for Ontario Regulated Health Care Professionals currently employed by an Ontario Licensed Long-Term Care (LTC) Home!

Are you ready to turn knowledge into action, build a community of practice, collaborate with interprofessional colleagues, and lead practice change? Then the WCCP for regulated health-care providers is right for you!

The goal of the Wound Care Champion Program for regulated health-care providers is to provide frontline health-care clinicians with the knowledge and skills necessary to identify persons at risk for wounds and to implement appropriate preventative and treatment measures, using a systematic, interprofessional, person-centred approach.

This self-paced, multifaceted program (that takes an average of 80 hours to complete) will produce health-care clinicians proficient in wound prevention and care who are prepared to lead change in the health community.
