Susy has been presenting her work nationally and internationally. Susy has also introduced skin tone assessment into the daily skin assessment at the Christie for which she is nominated for the Nursing Times Award 2024. She has published nine articles about MFW, skin tone assessment and pressure ulcer prevention in various journals including the European Oncology Nursing Journal, Wounds UK, Wound International and the British Journal of Nursing. Also been part of the development of a consensus document for the management of malignant fungating wounds recently. She has also co-authored a chapter in the Non-Melanoma Skin Cancer book. She is a teaching faculty for the ESTRO (European Society for Radiotherapy and Oncology) Society.

Revolutionising Wound Care Education: A Three-Part Approach
Welcome to our third episode! We delve into the innovative tripartite approach to designing and implementing a multi-disciplinary wound care curriculum in higher education. I'm Sharon Gardner, Clinical Services Manager for Mediq UK, and I'm thrilled to be joined by two special guests: Jane Munro, a Lecturer in Nursing and Adult Health at the University of the West of Scotland (UWS), and Heather Hodgson, Lead Nurse for Tissue Viability at NHS Greater Glasgow & Clyde.
Together, Jane, Heather, and I have embarked on a mission to modernize post-registration education standards in wound care. Our unique tripartite approach brings together three distinct disciplines from University, NHS and Industry, fostering a collaborative environment to share knowledge and skills for achieving the best outcomes in wound care education.
Tune in as we discuss the challenges, insights, and successes of this pioneering educational initiative.

The challenges of living with Hidradenitis Suppurativa (HS)
Welcome to our new podcast, Wound Care Matters! On our first episode, we are discussing the chronic skin condition known as Hidradenitis Suppurativa with special guest Suzanne Moloney. Suzanne is a Hidradenitis Suppurativa patient advocate, founder of the Hidradenitis Suppurativa Trust in Ireland and also Founder and CEO of HidraWear, wearable wound care system.
Hidradenitis Suppurativa, also known as HS, is a painful and debilitating skin condition that causes inflamed, painful lumps to form in areas where skin rubs together, such as the armpits, groin, and buttocks. It can have a significant impact on a person's quality of life, both physically and emotionally.
In this episode, we will be diving into the challenges of living with HS, the importance of raising awareness about the condition, and the resources available to support those affected by it. We hope to provide valuable insights and information to help those with HS feel less alone and more empowered in managing their condition.
So sit back, relax, and join us as we explore the world of Hidradenitis Suppurativa with Suzanne Moloney.
