New expert resource for pharmacists is an Australian first
Wednesday, 10 December 2025

Thanks to our Platinum Partner Smith+Nephew for sharing Australia's first Best Practice Statement (BPS) on the role of community pharmacy in acute wound care – endorsed by Wounds Australia and our affiliate The Pharmacy Guild Australia. 

The Role of the Australian Community Pharmacist in Acute Wound Care is a first of its kind guide, tailored to pharmacists caring for acute wounds, to wound assessment, dressing selection and more. It was developed by a multidisciplinary expert panel and supported by Smith+Nephew, and it's available to download – completely free – in the Wounds Australia Knowledge Centre

We'll be sharing more details in January but encourage you to download and explore the BPS today.
