Clinical Resource Nurse - LPN

Clinical Resource Nurse (LPN)

Our mission to change skin and wound care while improving the lives of others isn't easy, but it's worth it! One in ten residents in a skilled nursing facility will develop a skin condition requiring expert medical care. We believe that every person deserves the very best skin and wound care. Building and leading wound care teams is how we do it! Our skin and wound care advanced practice providers bring education and encouragement to the people who take care of our patients 24/7, and our Clinical Resource Nurses support our providers and partners. When they get better at their jobs, our patient's wounds heal faster, and that is our goal!

This is a behind-the-scenes position that supports the relationship and function between the facility's staff and UWH. Actual hands-on wound care is minimal. The focus is education and administration.
