Where Nurses Come to Grow!

We understand you have invested time and resources into becoming a great nurse. Likewise, Mercy wants to invest in you as you answer your calling!

Overview:

Responsible and accountable for prescribing, delegating and coordinating the nursing care provided to a select group of patients for wound and ostomy care within the context of the organizations and nursing services. Wound care nurses specialize in the proper management of wound care by treating and monitoring wounds that are the result of disease, injury, or medical treatments. The job requires that a wound care nurse provides care that will optimally and safely heal various types of wounds, including but not limiting surgical openings, ulcers, decubitus ulcers, feeding tube sites, and abscesses. Their work requires that they access the wounds, create and implement treatment plans, monitor infections and signs of various infections, and clean wounds. The nurses must also have advanced skills to assess symptoms that require management of complex wounds. Wound care nurses will also educate other healthcare members in the area of proper wound care
