:

Job Summary:

College of Long Term Care (a part of Skilled Wound Care) provides educational services, public policy, and research to the healthcare community. We are looking for an Education Lead with a healthcare background to oversee our Wound Care training throughout the United States.

Why Wound Care?

There is a gap in nursing education in the area of wound care, and CLTC's goal is to equip nurses from a variety of backgrounds to better assess, manage, and care for complex wounds. This is of larger benefit to society as a whole. There are an estimated 1 million to 3 million pressure ulcers in the United States with an additional millions of venous, arterial, and diabetic ulcers.

Society at large has significantly ignored wounds and ulcers, although they are seriously painful and life-threatening for patients. Wounds are not as appealing as other diseases to treat or raise funding for, and so this area is generally overlooked.
