Wound Certification for CNA

I live in Indiana and I am trying to find out if there is any type of Wound Care training for CNAs. I have been a CNA for three years and would like to get into wound care if it is avaliable. I have tried looking up CNA2 but Indiana doesnt seem to have it. All I see is Patient Care Techs but I am not sure if they are the same..

    I have no idea about wound care certifications for a CNA; however, you can get great wound care experience working on a burn unit if there is one in your area. I would highly recommend that. Our burn techs do quite a bit of wound care. My understanding is that the "patient care assistant" is a position that works around the limited scope of practice of a CNA. PCA's generally have the same job duties, but can do more with specific training, like wound care, art line blood draws, etc. Check the general requirements for the position to see if you qualify and give it a shot.
