Outcome:
Increase in
awareness
regarding
classificatio
n of wound,
systematic
wound
assessment
process and
nursing
intervention
s for wound
care. I
developed
the ability to
identify gap
that affects
implementat

in
improving
application
of
knowledge
to practice.
I hope to
get the
same
benefits
from this
CPD.
