Patients with gastrointestinal, genitourinary, and integumentary system problems may seek acute or rehabilitative care from WOC nurses. As clinical experts, WOC nurses provide direct care to people with abdominal stomas, complex wounds, fistulas, drains, pressure ulcers, and continence disorders. The WOC nurse participates in the assessment, planning, implementation, and evaluation of care for these patients. The facts are in: As an educator, consultant, researcher, and administrator, the WOC nurse plays a pivotal role in providing optimal patient care in multiple health care settings, including inpatient, outpatient, long-term care, and home health (WOCN Society-WOCNCB, 08).
