    involves cleaning, treating, and monitoring skin injuries

    Wound Care, also known as Wound Management, involves the assessment, cleaning, treatment, and monitoring of injuries to the skin and underlying tissues. This process aims to promote healing, prevent infection, and minimize scarring. Proper wound care is crucial for both minor cuts and more severe injuries, and it often includes the use of dressings, antiseptics, and sometimes advanced therapies like negative pressure wound therapy or skin grafts.
