Quality wound care requires a holistic approach as impacts are seen in every aspect of a person's life. This unit provides you with an in-depth knowledge of acute and chronic wounds and specifically addresses challenges related to providing optimal nursing care for persons with wounds. Focus is given to linking existing knowledge and clinical skills from prior study to inform evidence-based practice in wound care. This unit takes an interdisciplinary approach to examining the science of wound healing, the principles and application of nursing care while also incorporating a necessary trans-disciplinary approach to care of a person with a wound. Learning activities assist you to respond to the challenges of assessment, management, and prevention of a range of acute and chronic wounds using an evidence-based, person-centred approach.","title-full":"NSB608 Wound Care in Practice","title-short":"Wound Care in Practice","url":{"current":"https://qutvirtual4.qut.edu.au/group/student/enrolment/units/unit?unitCode=NSB608&year=2025","prospective":"https://www.qut.edu.au/study/unit?unitCode=NSB608","timetable":"https://qutvirtual3.qut.edu.au/qvpublic/ttab_unit_search_p.process_teach_period_search?p_unit_cd=NSB608"},"year":2025,"years":[2024,2025]}
