Hello Fam! I am a PNS in the state of Florida and a bit confused by my instructor who told my cohort that as a LPN in the state of Florida we could get wound care certified in order to treat wounds. However today she stated all nurses can treat wounds so I raised my hand and asked if that applied to LPNs being we needed to get wound care certified and she simply stated again all nurses can do wound care. So I let it go. Any LPNS in the state of Florida care to shed light? I plan to get a number of certifications when I graduate but not sure if I actually have to get the wound care certificate.
