A Day in the Life of the Wound Center at GBMC

The Wound Center at GBMC is committed to focusing on treating and healing a patient using the newest technologies alongside traditional therapies.
Healing can be influenced by many factors, including circulation issues, infections, vascular diseases, diabetes, and swelling. Primary care doctors may not be as aware of the newest ways to treat wounds, but the staff at the Wound Center at GBMC is encouraged to take classes to keep up with the latest evidence-based practices. “Physicians, nurses, and case managers are always learning and finding new ways to improve,” says Tiffany Hall, RN, BSN.
Patients are seen on a weekly basis so staff can assess the wound, order testing, or change treatments as needed. Weekly appointments also allow patients and caregivers to build a relationship based on trust. “We have a great group of nurses here. They are really passionate about what they do,” says Dana Maniuszko, BSN, RN, ONC.

How is it? Is it super stressful? What is your work/life balance like? I know this comment is old but I’m really interested in this

[@liza6162]

@@Mysteriuminiquitatis1998 it’s not too bad but certainly there are days where it can be very stressful. I work in a clinic with only 3 RNs total so it can get busy quickly. I work from 8-4 most days. But when it gets crazy sometimesI get out around 5. There’s a lot of case management that you may not think about as wound care but is definitely part of the job.

⁠@@liza6162Have you done bedside before? You think is less stressful than bedside?

[@liza6162]

@@lisseteg yes, I’ve worked 2 years on a med/surg floor and it’s definitely less stressful. But it’s still a fast pace environment and can get very busy.
