Past Webinars
Jobskin Webinar - Multi Trauma and Reconstruction
Nov 30, 2021
Multi-trauma can present some unique challenges for prescribing and fitting compression as there is often substantial variation from the ‘norms’ of body structure and proportion – amputations, defects, flap reconstructions, to name a few. These not only alter the shape and composition of the garment but often present distinct challenges for anchorage, donning/doffing, and conformity.
This webinar will be heavily case study-based and will help therapists understand how to measure for, modify and prescribe garments for patients recovering from trauma.
Our highly qualified team are excited to work with you to provide the best custom garment, with the right compression, to fit your patient’s needs.
Jobskin Webinar - Custom Compression for Genital Oedema
Aug 27, 2021
Now here’s a clinical challenge!
Torsos are often much more intimidating to measure and for a therapist to feel confident that their measurements will result in a good fitting garment – and then genital oedema is thrown into the mix.
Ready-to-wear options are limited for genital oedema, and interim garments can lack dignity as a long-term solution, so a custom garment can quickly become the clinical necessity. This webinar will highlight the Jobskin options that are available, teach you how to measure and will conclude with some case studies to illustrate how a custom garment can be used for genital oedema.

Jobskin Webinar - Compression Garments for the Lower Limb
Aug 3, 2021
There are multiple clinical reasons (oedema, lymphoedema, vascular indications, burns, reconstruction,) that compression may be required for the lower limb and many of these clinical presentations make fitting and anchorage particularly hard.
As well as reviewing prescription principles and considerations, this webinar will give you a sneak peek into the garment design process, walk you through the huge range of ways garments can be modified to meet clinical needs, teach you how to measure, and review some case studies to bring the information all together. Suitable for the ‘beginner’ but still useful for the experienced clinician.
Jobskin Webinar - Lipoedema and Custom Compression Garments
Jul 3, 2021
Best practice guidelines for the management of lipoedema include the provision of appropriate compression and the nature of this clinical condition frequently dictates custom compression as the necessary option.
This webinar will review the principles for the prescription of compression for women with lipoedema and will review the options that Jobskin offers. It will include an instructional portion on how to measure, with a specific ‘side-note’ which will address the challenges of measuring garments for larger sizes.
Jobskin Webinar - Compression Garments for the Head and Neck
Jun 4, 2021
Measuring for garments for the head and neck can be discomfiting for therapists, particularly when the demand is infrequent and the presentation complex.
Getting a good fit seems challenging particularly as the garment has to be made with accurate fit over eyes, nose and mouth as well as fitting the head overall. However, correct measurement is not difficult once you understand which measurements are required and why. In addition to upskilling you in the measuring, this webinar will look at how a garment can be modified for H&NL patients.
Jobskin Webinar - Compression Garments for Scar Management
May 5, 2021
Compression is at the forefront of conservative interventions for scar management. While the type of garments may not be vastly different than those used for some other clinical indications, the options and modifications that can be used, make the garment prescription quite unique.
The challenges of 23-hour wear time, contractures, friable skin, aggressive hypertrophy, defects, flaps, and complex topography all present a treating therapist with unique and specific requirements that need to be addressed in a prescribed garment.
This webinar will upskill and equip you for those challenges.

Jobskin Webinar - Compression Garment Prescription and Design
Mar 31, 2021
Do you sometimes feel that you recognise a patient’s need for a pressure garment but feel unsure how to provide exactly what’s needed? Do you sometimes wonder how you make a good pressure garment great?
This webinar is designed to equip both new and experienced therapist alike with the knowledge to prescribe a ‘just right’ garment in a range of clinical contexts. You will become familiar with a wide range of options and modifications that can be incorporated into a garment which will give you the confidence to match compression and clinical need.
Jobskin Webinar - Introduction to Compression Garments
Mar 9, 2021
This webinar is designed for the beginner – the therapist who is new to compression – but will also be beneficial to the experienced therapist who teaches or mentors ‘beginner’ therapists.
It includes an overview of the indications for the use of compression, the aims and mechanisms of compression, the precautions and contra-indications, what graduated compression is and why its important, how garments are constructed and how this influences garment choice, and the differences between custom-made and ready-to-wear garments.
