I seen some discussion about wound
nurses. Do a lot of you have wound nurses? Are they Certified
Wound Specialists? Or WOCN nurses??? Or are they just nurses in your
facility that you have titled as your �wound�nurse. Just
curious. I have a lot of responsibilities in our facility in regards
to skin issues and questions but I am not certified as a �wound
nurse�. I would love to be but doubt that our facility would
part with me as a care plan MDS coordinator and second of all it is very
costly to become a WOCN nurse.
If you have a wound nurse or
specialist�. How do you utilize them in your facility???

Most of
us with "wound nurses" just have a nurse who is stuck with doing the "wound
care", or doing rounds w/ the wound doc. Very few wound care nurses
are certified enterostomal nurses.
