Abstract
  • A person’s occupational participation and performance are negatively affected by upper extremity injuries, specifically wounds. Specific wound care principles reduce impairment and improve overall function for desired occupations. Although wound care management is within occupational therapy’s scope of practice, wound care is considered an advanced clinical skill. The primary purpose of this capstone was to increase the wound care knowledge of occupational therapists at Advance Physical Therapy. A secondary purpose included creating a media platform for colleagues at Advance Physical Therapy to access the wound care educational module, a documentation educational presentation for new hires and students, and any future resources following the conclusion of the capstone. The capstone student developed a wound care educational module with a pre/post survey and learning objectives. The student presented it to four occupational therapists and one fieldwork student. This program development increased the wound care knowledge and confidence of occupational therapists.
