Wounds Australia is delighted to welcome medi Australia as its newest Gold Partner, strengthening an existing relationship with an organisation with longstanding expertise in medical compression.

medi has worked in medical compression for more than 70 years and today operates internationally across compression, orthopaedics and foot care. Its Australian business supports healthcare professionals and patients with products and services across areas including venous disease, lymphoedema and compression therapy.

Supporting better wound care

Compression therapy plays an important role in the management of a range of conditions encountered in wound care, including venous leg ulcers and oedema. medi's compression range includes medical compression stockings and adjustable compression systems designed for different clinical needs.

The new partnership builds on medi Australia's involvement in wound care and will support Wounds Australia's work to provide education, share evidence and improve outcomes for people living with wounds.

Wounds Australia CEO Jeff Antcliff said the medi Australia experience made it a natural fit for the organisation's Corporate Partner network.

"medi Australia already has strong connections with clinicians working in areas such as compression, lymphoedema and venous disease," Mr Antcliff said. "We look forward to drawing on that experience to help clinicians strengthen their knowledge of compression therapy and its role in managing venous leg ulcers, lymphoedema and related conditions."

medi Australia National Commercial Manager Damien Peak – pictured [far right] with General Manager Adam Gibbons, Mr Antcliff and Germany-based Senior Commercial Coordinator GMO Klaus Hones – said the partnership would give the company more opportunities to hear directly from clinicians working in wound care.

"We're proud to become a Gold Partner and to build a closer relationship with the clinicians who use compression as part of everyday patient care," Mr Peak said. "Being part of the Wounds Australia community gives us the chance to listen, learn and better understand the challenges clinicians and patients are facing, so we can continue supporting care that is practical, informed and patient-focused."
