Under the expert editorial leadership of Jayesh Shah, MD, MHA, FUHM, in partnership as co-editor with Catherine Milne, MSN, CWOCN-AP, the third edition of the Wound Care Certification Study Guide has undergone an extensive update.

As in the previous editions, the Wound Care Certification Study Guide continues to provide self-assessment questions at the conclusion of each chapter to help readers identify areas needing further review. This comprehensive study guide includes:
