Shift #4

Assisted with a wound vac change. Learned how to clean and pack the wound, apply the vac, and ensure there is proper suction. Treated an open surgical wound from an amputation that was not healing properly. Learned the benefits of hyperbaric  treatment to help a wound heal (it provides a super dose of oxygen that can help a wound that has stalled).
