Project ECHO® Ontario Skin and Wound Care

For health care providers based in Ontario who have an interest in skin and wound care

Join us in the journey to improve wound care in Ontario. Our program connects healthcare providers and specialists for live online sessions and case discussions, creating a strong community of practice.

Moving Knowledge, Not Patients

WoundPedia, Queen’s University, and the Nurses Specialized in Wound Ostomy and Continence Canada (NSWOCC) represent the Project ECHO Ontario Skin and Wound Care Hub.

 

Based on a knowledge transfer and guided practice model, Project ECHO links expert inter-professional teams at an academic hub with primary care providers in their communities. Our vision is optimal wound care for all Ontarians. Our project goal is that all interested health care providers in Ontario have the knowledge and support they need to manage patients with wounds safely and effectively.

More than 1,500 hubs for more than 100 diseases and conditions in over 200 countries.

Project ECHO stands for Extension for Community Healthcare Outcomes. The program was first developed by the University of New Mexico to improve Hepatitis C treatment in rural regions. Project ECHO has been replicated in all over the world, including Ontario, where it has proven to expand capacity for pain control, opioid stewardship and other conditions. This Project will replicate the ECHO model for skin and wound care.

We are one of more than 25 ECHO programs in Ontario.
