Advanced Wound Care Symposiums 2026

It takes place at Linfield University School of Nursing in Portland, Oregon.

The organizer identifies health care providers, educators, and students with an interest in wound medicine as its intended audience.

It is worth it for wound care nurses, therapists and physicians in the Portland area who want a focused half-day on the swollen leg, covering lymphatic anatomy, the Lymphedema Treatment Act, compression strategy and hands-on wrapping workshops. The faculty are local clinicians such as physical and occupational therapists, a nurse practitioner and a physician, so it fits regional practitioners better than those wanting a national program or broad exhibit hall; anyone outside lymphedema and venous disease would get little from it.

Clinicians at wound care education days usually wear business casual or clean scrubs, and comfortable clothing suits the hands-on wrapping workshops.
