Job Description

A Registered Nurse (RN) - Wound Care specializes in the assessment, treatment, and management of patients with acute or chronic wounds. The RN provides expert care to individuals suffering from a variety of wound types, including pressure ulcers, diabetic ulcers, surgical wounds, and traumatic injuries. The role involves performing wound assessments, implementing care plans, educating patients and caregivers, and working closely with a multidisciplinary team to promote healing and prevent complications. The RN must stay updated on the latest wound care techniques, products, and protocols to ensure the highest standard of care.

Key Responsibilities :

  • Wound Assessment and Evaluation :

Perform thorough assessments of wounds, documenting size, depth, drainage, stage, and signs of infection or complications.

  • Evaluate patient conditions, including comorbidities, nutritional status, and mobility, which may affect wound healing.
  • Identify underlying causes of wounds, such as pressure, vascular insufficiency, or diabetes, and develop comprehensive care plans.
  • Wound Care Treatment and Management :
  • Apply appropriate dressings and topical treatments based on the type and severity of the wound.

  • Manage wound infections by administering prescribed antibiotics and ensuring proper wound hygiene.
  • Perform debridement of necrotic tissue when necessary and as per facility protocols, utilizing safe and effective methods (e.g., autolytic, mechanical, enzymatic).
  • Monitor wound healing progress and adjust care plans as needed to ensure optimal healing.
  • Patient and Family Education :
  • Educate patients and their families about the importance of proper wound care and prevention strategies to avoid further damage.

  • Instruct patients on how to properly care for wounds at home, including how to change dressings, recognize signs of infection, and prevent pressure injuries.
  • Provide advice on lifestyle modifications (e.g., proper nutrition, mobility, and hygiene) to support wound healing.
  • Multidisciplinary Collaboration :
  • Work closely with physicians, dietitians, physical therapists, and other healthcare professionals to develop and implement effective care plans.

  • Collaborate with the healthcare team to address the root causes of wounds, such as improving blood flow, managing chronic conditions, or promoting mobility.
  • Participate in case discussions and care meetings, providing expertise on wound management and contributing to treatment strategies.
  • Documentation and Reporting :
  • Maintain accurate and up-to-date records of patient assessments, treatments, interventions, and wound care progress.

  • Document wound measurements, descriptions, and the patient's response to treatment in the medical record, ensuring compliance with legal and healthcare standards.
  • Report any complications, such as infection or delayed healing, to the medical team in a timely manner.
  • Prevention and Risk Assessment :
  • Conduct regular risk assessments for patients at risk of developing pressure ulcers, diabetic ulcers, or other chronic wounds.

  • Implement and educate patients on preventive measures, such as turning schedules for bedridden patients, pressure-relieving devices, and appropriate footwear.
  • Advise on nutrition and hydration to support tissue health and wound healing.
  • Pain Management :
  • Assess and manage pain associated with wounds, utilizing both pharmacological and non-pharmacological methods.

  • Provide comfort measures, such as positioning, dressing changes, and emotional support, to minimize pain and discomfort.
  • Educate patients on pain management techniques, including medication adherence and the importance of reporting pain changes.
  • Quality Improvement and Best Practices :
  • Stay informed on the latest wound care research, treatment options, and best practices to ensure the highest standards of care are met.

  • Participate in quality improvement initiatives, such as audits, peer reviews, and training, to improve the quality of wound care services provided.
  • Provide training and support to other staff members, including nurses, nursing assistants, and healthcare workers, on effective wound care techniques.
