This book cover the details of wound healing. Down to the actions of every molecule and cell action to promote wound healing. It is very comprehensive and literally expanded my knowledge of wound healing and has prepared me for the CWS certification.

This was the book used for my wound portion of my wound, ostomy, continence certification program. The book had great pictures. The book does a good job of explaining the anatomy and physiology of wounds and what is required to obtain optimal wound healing.

So glad I purchased this book. Alot of relevant and informative info I have been able to put immediately into practice. My facility has recently added a pressure relief/mobility screen into the order set for physical therapists, and this book has helped with protocol and recommendations.

Purchased this book while taking a wound certification class. Excellent book, well written great pictures. Very informative. Recommend to anyone that wants a good wound reference book.

addition to my wound material, a good resource.

Great product!

Great book!

The book was in an overall good condition, but some of the pages were stuck together inside the textbook which then made some of the pages rip.
