Caring for a wound can be challenging enough without the ongoing cost of dressings 💚

If you’re buying wound supplies for yourself or a family member, you may be eligible for help through the Australian Government’s Chronic Wound Consumables Scheme.

Who may qualify?

✅ People with diabetes AND a chronic wound.
✅ Aged 65 years or older, or 50 years or older for Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people.
✅ Meeting the scheme’s requirements regarding other wound care services and funding.

A chronic wound is one that has not progressed through the normal stages of healing within 30 days.

For eligible patients, approved wound dressings, bandages and other consumables are fully funded and delivered to your home or nominated address.

At Wound Care Solutions, our Nurse Practitioner can assess your wound, check your eligibility, explain your options and help coordinate access to suitable supplies.

Exclusions apply when wound care or funding is provided through NDIS, DVA, government-funded residential aged care, Home Care Packages, the Commonwealth Home Support Programme, government-funded wound clinics or hospital care. If you receive Support at Home services, please tell us so we can check your funding arrangements.

Consultation and treatment fees may apply separately.

Not sure where to start? Contact Emilie for an eligibility discussion or to book a wound assessment.

Did you know there’s a local wound care service supporting Bass Coast and Gippsland? 💚

If you’re living with a wound that won’t heal, a skin tear or a leg ulcer, knowing where to turn can make a difference.

Wound Care Solutions offers personalised care for older people in our community, with time to listen, explain your options and help you understand your wound care plan.

I’m Emilie Masi, a local Nurse Practitioner with 24 years of nursing experience and a Master of Wound Management.

How can we help?

• Assessment and management of slow-healing wounds, leg ulcers and skin tears.
• Dressing advice and an individual wound care plan.
• Lower leg assessment and compression therapy where appropriate.
• Support for families and carers managing dressings at home.
• Coordination with your GP, community nurses and care providers.
• Checking eligibility for the Chronic Wound Consumables Scheme to help with dressing costs.

Clinic appointments, home visits and telehealth options can be discussed, depending on your needs and location.

You don’t need to know which dressing to choose or why your wound isn’t healing before contacting us. That’s what an assessment can help clarify.

To discuss your needs, appointment options and fees, call Emilie.

Nurses and aged care teams — would you like more confidence in wound care? 💚

Knowing how to assess a wound, choose a dressing and recognise when to escalate care can feel challenging, especially when a wound isn’t progressing as expected.

At Wound Care Solutions, I offer practical wound care education and mentoring tailored to your team’s needs and experience.

Education options include:

• Facility education sessions for nursing and care teams.
• One-to-one education for nurses wanting to strengthen specific skills.
• Individual mentoring to support clinical reasoning and professional development.

Topics can include:

• Structured wound assessment using the MEASURE framework.
• Dressing selection and understanding when to change the plan.
• Skin tears, pressure injuries and protecting fragile skin.
• Lower limb wounds and principles of compression therapy.
• Recognising deterioration and knowing when to escalate.
• Clear documentation and practical wound care planning.

I’m Emilie Masi, a Nurse Practitioner with 24 years of nursing experience and a Master of Wound Management. My approach is practical, supportive and judgement-free — with space to ask questions and connect learning to everyday care.

Are you a facility manager, clinical care coordinator, nurse educator or nurse looking for individual support?

When your patients know you a little *too* well… 😂🩹

I received these brilliant gifts from a patient today, and honestly, they absolutely understood the assignment!

“Skilled enough to be a wound nurse, crazy enough to love it” — accurate.

“Keep calm, all bleeding stops… eventually” — technically also accurate! 🤣

All jokes aside, I feel incredibly fortunate to care for such wonderful people. The kindness shown to me today was so thoughtful, but the greatest gift will always be the trust my patients place in me and in Wound Care Solutions.

Being invited into someone’s care—often when they are experiencing pain, uncertainty or a difficult health journey—is a privilege I never take lightly.

Thank you to all my patients for your trust, your stories, your humour and the relationships we build along the way. You are the reason I genuinely love what I do. 💚
