The Lake City VA Wound Team presented a week-long daily presentation for the nursing staff during Wound, Ostomy and Continence Nurses (WOCN) week, April 17-23.  WOC Nurses are recognized during WOCN week for their work with wound, ostomy and continence patients across the country. The Team chose “it takes a village” for the theme of their presentations. Each day the nursing staff received a simple PowerPoint slide focusing on some aspect of wound care, such as pressure injury prevention, monitoring, skin care, teamwork, incontinence care and documentation. The staff responded very positively to the presentations and were appreciative for the recognition they received.
