Wednesday 18th January, 2012	Wound care and bandaging techniques Venue : Mariner's Club, 11 Middle Road, Tsim Sha Tsui Time : Dinner from 7.00pm, seminars from 7.30-10.00pm Speaker : Miss Rachel Lumbis Cost : Include Dinner - Members : $0, Non-Members : $250 Paid on that night - Members : $0, Non-Members : $0 Veterinary Nursing Seminar (with mini-workshop) Rachel Lumbis Rachel qualified as a Veterinary Nurse several years ago whilst working in a small animal practice. She then moved to London and completed a degree in Veterinary Nursing. During this period Rachel spent time locuming at a variety of small animal practices. She developed an interest in internal medicine and nutrition and went on to complete a certificate in small animal nutrition. Rachel joined the Royal Veterinary College in 2008 as Assistant Lecturer in Veterinary Nursing. She is involved in teaching undergraduate veterinary and veterinary nursing students and also contributes towards the provision of external CPD for veterinary nurses. She holds the RCVS veterinary nursing examiner qualification and has recently become a member of BVNA council. Wound care and bandaging techniques Traumatic wounds are a common presentation in small animal veterinary practice. Veterinary nurses are increasingly becoming involved in the care and management of wounds and will often be responsible for initial assessment and management in a first aid situation. An understanding of wound types, the healing process and appropriate management is therefore integral to their role. With a variety of dressing and bandage materials now available, it is also essential to have an appreciation of their functions and use. The aim of this seminar is to provide a review of practical wound management including classification, types, modes and stages of healing. Consideration will also be given to the functions and uses of a variety of dressings and bandage materials. The lead lecture will cover wound assessment, the healing process and practical management techniques. This will be complemented by a case based seminar session during which delegates will have the opportunity to explore different wound dressings, encouraging the evaluation of new and alternative products available for wound management. A review of bandaging techniques will also be discussed with best practice being demonstrated in the context of first aid care. Delegates will have an opportunity to refine their clinical skills on models/ manikins where time permits. Specific areas to be covered: Wound classification Wound types, modes and stages of healing Phases of normal wound healing Causes of delayed wound healing Recognising aseptic techniques in wound management Select appropriate dressing and bandage materials and identify their uses Identification of potential problems and prevention of self mutilation Utilising different bandaging methods (Robert Jones, limb, head, thorax, abdomen, splint, doughnut etc.) This workshop will appeal to all VNs & VAs, regardless of their level of training.
