Wound Management: Dressing a Wound

Effective wound management is a critical component of ensuring the well-being and quality of life for older people. We become increasingly vulnerable to injuries and skin tear as we age. This can escalate into chronic wounds, leading to significant pain, social isolation, and even life-threatening complications. Inadequate wound management is one of the most common clinical issues in caring for older people.
