Our policy is wet to dry with morning visit. but depending on the wound, if it seemed urgent or complicated I would consider a visit. but general answer is wet to dry. Which is why i stress to my new nurses and lpn to make sure pt and family understand wet to dry and have supplies with every visit, which is usually 3 times per week.

What's your protocol when a patient calls, during the night, that their wound vac is malfunctioning? Are you required to go or wait until the morning?
