The Academy of Physicians in Wound Healing (APWH), is the leading physician/prescribing authority professional organization in wound care that has been created to meet the needs of its members in three subject areas:
- Clinical and operations-focused education
- Compensation advocacy
- Legislative action on healthcare issues
While bed-side nurses have had the benefit of nursing-specific organizations to address the needs of the nursing profession, we believe that physicians and wound care prescribing authority clinicians have been at a disadvantage in this regard. APWH is open to all prescribing physicians (MD, DO and DPM) and Nurse Practioners and Physician Assistants.
At the heart of our organization lies a passionate commitment to improving patient outcomes, and enhancing the quality of life for those affected by chronic wounds. Through a dynamic fusion of education, research, and collaboration, we empower physicians, nurse practitioners, and physician assistants to deliver the most advanced wound-healing solutions. Join us on your journey to become a leader in wound care and make a meaningful impact on the lives of countless individuals worldwide.
