Benefits
Wound Care is a highly sought-after competency for nurses practicing in long term care facilities and for home health nurses caring for patients in the home. By completing Vohra’s Wound Care Certification Program, participants take a large step toward becoming wound care experts.
Nurses with a Wound Care Certification can assist physicians and also treat wounds directly, improving patient outcomes significantly. Not only do trained wound nurses help improve patient quality of life, they help nursing facilities and home health agencies minimize the risk of citations and infractions for pressure ulcers. Patients under the care of a certified wound nurse rarely need to leave their regular place of treatment to visit wound care centers or hospitals, where such trips often overexert the patient and are expensive for the facility and payor. Additionally, wound training improves patient outcomes and quality of life, and minimizes the need for costly and often traumatic wound treatment in the long-term. For these reasons and countless others, nurses certified in wound care are a valuable asset to any patient care team.
The Vohra Certification Program for Wound Care focuses on a variety of wound care topics including:
• Acute and Chronic Wounds
• Atypical Wounds
• F686 Regulatory Requirements
• Geriatric Skin Conditions
• Infection Control
• Management & Treatment of Vascular Ulcers
• Nutrition
• Support Surfaces
• Wound Care Treatment Options
• Wound Healing
• Wound Rounds & Assessment
• Delayed Wound Healing
• Prevention of Re-hospitalizations

Yes it is.
Do you all have any advice for people who have already earned a bachelors degree; and would like to begin a career as a nurse? My main concern is money. Before I graduated I never would have imagined how expensive going back to school would be. I am now considering getting my LPN or becoming a medical assistant just to get my foot in the door.

It depends upon the school and state in which you live. It is on a case by case basis.
