Monash Advanced Clinical Wound Practice Certificate

The Monash Advanced Clinical Wound Practice Certificate (MACWPC) 2026 is a two-day on-campus program held at Monash University Malaysia. Hosted by the Jeffrey Cheah School of Medicine and Health Sciences, the program is designed to bridge the gap between clinical theory and frontline wound care practice. Participants will engage with practising clinicians and academics across the latest developments in limb salvage, pressure injury prevention, and precision wound assessment.

This program is accredited by the Malaysian Medical Association (MMA) and carries 12 CPD points. Participants will receive their CPD points upon successful completion of the workshop, supporting their continuing professional development obligations under the MMC's CPD framework.

This program is designed for healthcare professionals working across the wound care continuum, including:
- Surgeons and specialists, including vascular, orthopaedic, and general surgeons involved in limb salvage and complex wound management
- General practitioners and medical officers seeking to improve precision in wound assessment and clinical decision-making.
- Nurses and assistant medical officers, particularly those focused on pressure injury prevention, offloading strategies, and the clinical application of precision dressings.
- Allied health professionals, including dietitians, pharmacists, and podiatrists involved in wound healing and limb ischaemia care.
- Clinical educators and researchers interested in evidence-based strategies for preventing surgical site infections and applying advanced adjunct therapies.
By the end of this program, you will be able to:
- Apply rapid bedside diagnostic tools, including Pedal Acceleration Time (PAT), to identify limb ischaemia with greater confidence
- Conduct precision wound assessments using standardised criteria for more reliable clinical decisions
- Design effective positioning and offloading plans to prevent pressure injuries
- Apply evidence-based strategies to reduce surgical site infections in your daily practice
- Select advanced dressings and adjunct therapies that optimise healing in complex, non-healing wounds
- Integrate nutrition strategies that actively support wound recovery
- Strengthen your clinical reasoning through case-based learning alongside multidisciplinary experts
