Wound Care Warrior Recognition Program

Wound care is not for the faint of heart.

Every wound tells a story, and behind each one stands a warrior: the nurse who refuses to give up on a non-healing pressure injury, the CNA who gently turns a resident every two hours, the therapist who finds a new way to protect fragile skin.

They fight unseen battles every day, against infection, immobility, and time itself.

Their victories aren’t always loud, but they are life-changing.

Wound Care Warriors embody what it means to heal wounds and change lives.

They remind us that true healing isn’t just clinical , it’s human.
