LPN's in wound care?

Specialties Wound

Updated:   Published

hello,

I'm very interested in being a wound nurse. I just graduated with LPN. I'm wondering if I have to be an RN to be a wound nurse or if I can do it as a LPN? and if I can what are the steps to take and I also would like to know how it is as a wound care nurse. Is it the type of job where you go from place to place and make your own schedule or are you just employed by one company as their primary wound care nurse? also anything else I should know would be great!

Thanks!

I too inherit this position, as a treatment nurse and want to get certified, it's less stress for me right now only problem is that I don't have anyone to follow, learning how to on my own with videos, and reading books.
