Integrated Links between all programs, sectors and regions will serve to prevent duplication of service, optimize existing resources and ensure a seamless ribbon of care for all wound care patients 2. Evidence-based Wound care practice supported by scientific evidence and considered the gold standard in keeping with Excellent Care for All Act s definition and guiding principles
