How do you handle situations where patients have open wounds or surgical incisions that require frequent cleaning or dressing changes?

Check with a wound care nurse to find products that reduce the frequency of dressing changes. Frequent dressing changes can delay healing.

I would make sure you order plenty of dressing supplies for the next shift and for the next 3 days if you know how long the patient will be in the hospital

Also have your solution example Normal Saline
Available if the Dr prescribed it for the wound change.

There is always a reason for delayed healing. Find out the etiology. Discuss goals with the patient and provider. Treat accordingly.
