Wound Care

 Wound care is an umbrella term used to describe the treatments preformed, when there is a break in the skin. A wound can occur from an injury, a surgery or in conjunction with a disease process, that weakens the integrity of the skin. Nutrition is the key.
Fun fact, the skin is the largest organ of the body And with great power, comes great responsibility! What exactly are these responsibilities? 

• Protection: Keeps bad things out (pathogens, toxins)
• Absorption: Allows good things in (nutrients, hydration)
• Secretion: Gets rid of waste
• Temperature Control
• Touch and Sensation
