Distance Learning Course

This course is intended for use by those in training to become nursing and medical professionals.

"Wound Care" was originally developed by the U.S Army Medical Department, for their medical personnel. It has been reformatted and augmented by the Brookside Associates for wider distribution.

The content may not be appropriate for sensitive viewers or children, as we use medical education grade images, videos, and text that some may find disturbing.

While this material may be very useful to students of the health sciences, completion of this course does not imply competence or certification.

Non-Medical Visitors

I welcome visitors to this site who have no nursing or medical background. I understand you might be considering a healthcare career, or are seeking healthcare information for yourself or a family member. Or you may simply be curious.

I'm glad you're here, and hope you find what you are seeking.

Limitations

The information provided through this site is from a variety of sources, but primarily the U.S. Army Medical Department.

1. The Brookside Associates does not necessarily endorse or agree with all of the clinical opinions expressed, as those opinions belong to the authors.

2. The information provided in this course was believed by its' authors to be reasonably accurate and reliable when it was first published. Since then, scientific knowledge and clinical experience has expanded. Consequently, some of the opinions expressed here may be out of date, or would be phrased differently if written today.

3. Throughout the history of medicine, some of what was once believed to be correct, has later been shown to be incorrect.

4. References to military settings or military medical procedures may not be applicable to civilian situations.

All of these limitations should be considered in reviewing the contents of this website.
