Thank you for a great training video. I’m an RN, helping with wound care for a family member and I wanted to brush up on these skills. You’re so thorough & helpful. Thank you!
CONGRATULATIONS!! I am so happy for you! And I am so happy that I could be part of your journey to becoming a nurse. Please don't be a stranger... would love to hear about your experience as a new grad. ❤️
Thank you for giving a such clear introduction on the importance of the first skin check assessment!! Many nurses are not taking it seriously enough. I still remember on my last placement, a nurse did a very poor skin assessment and documentation for a patient who admitted to the ward with UTI. The patient was significantly underweight, bed-bound and confused. I did not believe in what the chart said and I did a skin assessment with another student, yeah bingo, we found second degree pressure injuries on both pt foot. Unfortunately we found it after the first 24 hours, the team leader said our ward officially caused the pressure injuries.
Fara, Congratulations on your soon Graduation. That's right around the corner. We are happy to have been a part of your journey. Please keep us posted on your success! Best of Luck to you!!
Please add more wound care videos! I was hoping to find help learning how to stage pressure injuries and with describing wounds and with dressings! I see this video was made in 2019, so maybe the series was put to the side.

Hi Cathy, I’m currently studying for my boards and your videos are sooooo helpful, i can stress how much the information you say is so accurate to what is in my Nclex review book 😀😀😀.. By any chance, do have any videos regarding the topic of burns and how to care for them? That would be a big help!! You best!!!
I love this video. So many good information and also high quality tips that can be very useful. I wish seeing more videos related to wound care, skin care, integumentary care here on your channel. Thank you ❤️
You are such a blessing to all of us .Thank you so much for everything you do .Lords willing will be a Wound Nurse one day !!! Will you make wound cards ?
You are so welcome! Thank YOU for your incredibly kind comment. Wound nursing is a GREAT job, so I would definitely encourage you to pursue a career as a wound nurse if that interests you. I LOVE the idea of creating wound care cards... I will put it on my to-do list. 👍 Thanks for your support!
@@LevelUpRN Yes I love the cards helps break everything down .Dosage calculation cards would be great as well.Thanks for all you do .Will purchase the ekg soon.
Thank you Cathy for all your videos! I got my LPN in May of this year and you were a big part of it. Cathy, when you started wound care, did you have any issue at first with feeling nauseous when you saw wounds? I had an orientation night with a wound nurse and I felt really nauseous. The funny thing is thou that I’m really interested in wound care but I had to step out for a few at one point. Do you have any suggestions ?
You are so welcome! So happy I could be part of your journey to becoming an LPN. I have not had any issues with nausea with wound care, but I have definitely known some nursing students (and nurses) who struggled initially, but then overcame that feeling over a short time. It is your body's visceral reaction to seeing the wound, and it is very common. If you spend some more time doing wound care, your mind/body will get used to it, and you probably won't have that issue after a little while. If you are interested in wound care, I would definitely try to get more exposure to wounds and look into classes/education on wound care. 👍
If the previous nurse from the other unit already did the wound care as ordered before the patient arrived, you typically don’t have to take the dressing down and redo it. You can document that the wound is covered and the dressing is clean, dry, and intact. However definitely check with your facility’s policy!
Yes, patients often have wounds on their posterior side, so turning and lifting is part of the job. Getting help and using assistive devices is important!
Hi Jennifer, Thanks for your inquiry. Unfortunately, these cards are no longer available for sale. We truly apologize for the inconvenience but be sure to sign up for our email newsletter at LevelUpRN.com: leveluprn.com/ to find out about more resources to be released in the future! Best of luck with your studies!
As a wound care nurse my biggest issue is the admitting nurse missing a pre existing wound upon admission and the center having to take blame and it becoming a HAI.

According to the bibles genealogy the world is only 6000 years old which disputes fossil records and all science which prove the earth is 5.4 billion years old Jesus said nearly 2000 years ago:Truly I tell you, some who are standing here will not taste death before they see the Son of Man coming in his kingdom." And he said speaking of end times when the antichrist would come: Truly I tell you, this generation will certainly not pass away until all these things have happened. And speaking of slavery which the bible permits: When a man strikes his male or female slave with a rod so hard that the slave dies under his hand, he shall be punished. If, however, the slave survives for a day or two, he is not to be punished, since the slave is his own property. Also the tribe of benjamin was permitted to capture "a damsel or two for himself" and force them into marriage to unwillingly bear children by rape. Deuteronomy 13:12 you hear it said about one of the towns the LORD your God is giving you to live in that troublemakers have arisen among you and have led the people of their town astray, saying, "Let us go and worship other gods" (gods you have not known), then you must inquire, probe and investigate it thoroughly. And if it is true and it has been proved that this detestable thing has been done among you,you must certainly put to the sword all who live in that town. You must destroy it completely, both its people and its livestock.(including people who had nothing to do with it).

Take some zofran before doing wound tx 🤣
Does this series have more than two videos?
Thanks alot, Please continue.
Thank you for watching!
Please make wound care flashcards!
Yes!! I would love a set of those.
Great idea, and now that MULTIPLE people have suggested it, I have definitely added it to my to-do list. Thank you!
I am so excited to be a nurse
Fantastic! 😍🎉
Can you recommend a resource to classify wounds?
Excellent!
What if the patient is being transferred from another floor and the wound is packed and or covered? do you uncover and look at it or what?
If the previous nurse from the other unit already did the wound care as ordered before the patient arrived, you typically don’t have to take the dressing down and redo it. You can document that the wound is covered and the dressing is clean, dry, and intact. However definitely check with your facility’s policy!
Very helpful ❤
I'm so glad!
As a wound care nurse is there any lifting the patient? Ty
Yes, patients often have wounds on their posterior side, so turning and lifting is part of the job. Getting help and using assistive devices is important!
Hey there! I was wondering where to find all of your flashcards and not just the 4 that are currently available? Thank you for your time!

excited for these videos!!
I am an LVN wondering if I can be a wound care nurse in LTC because I thought I have to be a RN to do wound care
You can get your WCC and do wound care at many SNFs and LTACs.
Thank you ! Do I have to be certified through WCC ? Or can I work in the setting without certification TIA
I have my interview in 2 days in wound care dept. Have no clue at all.
Great information !!
Thanks for watching!
Are u going to continue the series?
wish your videos were a little longer but thank you !
Thank You
Very welcome!
How to bay your flash card ? Thank you so much.
As a wound care nurse my biggest issue is the admitting nurse missing a pre existing wound upon admission and the center having to take blame and it becoming a HAI.

What the price to charge for 8 wound care home visit
No nurse or cna will do a full skin assessment on either of us.
Thank you! ❤❤❤
Do I take a picture of the wound with my phone !!?? 😳
No, you would use a secure facility device/camera to take the picture.
I have to get to Atlanta Georgia
this video works better at 1.5 speed
Thank yoUUUUUUU
You are so welcome!
Yesss kathy
love this thank you
❤️
♥️♥️♥️👏🏻

If you have sutures from the hospital you need to get them taken out by a licenced professional not a friend who happens to be medical.
Is there anything this nurse can't do!
Earth number and this is six Wellington but she meant I won't be home and I always have fun sorry for hello Starbucks
So funny, it’s all about the money, not about finding the wound to treat it but to save hospital’s a$$, otherwise they won’t get paid. :((
