Are you looking for a fulfilling career where you can watch your care make a difference throughout a resident's care journey? Want to be part of a team of dedicated and communicative colleagues? We foster a supportive and collaborative team environment where nurses are valued, respected, and empowered to grow professionally. Working alongside interdisciplinary colleagues, you'll be encouraged to share your expertise, learn from others, and contribute to a culture of compassion and excellence. At Woodridge, every day brings new opportunities to make a positive impact while advancing your skills in a rewarding and purpose-driven setting. The Wound Care Nurse serves as the clinical leader for the facility's wound care and skin integrity program, supporting both short-term rehabilitation and long-term care residents. In this role, you will oversee the prevention, assessment, treatment, and healing of wounds while promoting resident-centered care and ensuring compliance with regulatory and quality standards. As the wound care expert, you will collaborate with interdisciplinary teams to develop and implement individualized treatment plans that optimize healing outcomes and enhance residents' quality of life. Key responsibilities include conducting comprehensive skin and wound assessments, performing wound measurements, documenting and monitoring healing progress, and entering and managing wound care orders within the electronic medical record. The Wound Care Nurse works closely with physicians, nurse practitioners, rehabilitation staff, dietitians, and nursing teams to coordinate care and drive positive clinical outcomes. This position also plays a critical role in pressure injury prevention, quality improvement initiatives, staff education, and competency development. The ideal candidate is a skilled clinician with strong assessment and communication abilities, sound clinical judgment, and a passion for evidence-based practice, continuous improvement, and exceptional resident care.
