The Wound Care Prevention course emphasizes the importance of a provider’s overall ability to recognize, assess, and prevent the development of a variety of common wounds as well as exploring the current and accepted treatments in a healthcare setting.  A better understanding of the factors and environments that contribute to the development of wounds is a skill that increases the level and quality of care a patient receives. Recognition and assessment of existing or developing wounds allow the Healthcare Professional to better document and monitor the patient’s recovery and the success or effectiveness of various treatments.
