Skin and Wound Management Module 4: Wound Care

Recorded On: 02/28/2023

There are many different types of skin conditions that we label “wounds” however there are distinct differences between a diabetic ulcer and a pressure ulcer. As such, interventions and treatment should be modified based on the type of wound being treated as well as prevention techniques that may assist in reducing the risk of developing wounds. This presentation will provide you with the information needed to implement an effective treatment and prevention program.

Objectives:

  • State the key components to the federal regulation F686
  • Identify key areas that are critical to reduce the risk of breakdown
  • Identify the components to a thorough risk assessment
