Why I’m Proud to be WCC

Certification allowed me an opportunity to support my multidisciplinary team by contributing to wound assessment and treatment suggestions

I'm proud to be associated with such a distinguished group of professionals. Being certified has helped me achieve both professional and financial gain as a wound nurse manager and consultant.

I am proud to be a WCC because it represents my wound clinician expert status to peers before I even speak. I am proud because I took the next step in my wound career, and validated my knowledge and experience with certification through the National Alliance of Wound Care!

Because of the self satisfaction to heal and see the wounds progress and I feel I make a difference.

I am very proud to be a WCC. The nurses, PT, doctors, and other healthcare workers all took this program, not easy but very worth it. I love wound care, plain and simple.

I have always been fascinated by the physiological and biological aspects of the healing process. In wound care, I have the privilege of experiencing healing wounds one centimeter and time. Educating and encouraging clientele is a large part of the job, and provides a huge measure of satisfaction. Nothing compares to celebrating a healed wound. Being WCC provided me with a facet of nursing that enhanced the pride and happiness I have in my career.

It has given me confidence at bedside.

I love my profession so much, I took the extra step to become certified and I am so happy I did!

I love to see the healing and see patients get their life back that they had lost due to chronic wounds.

I am proud to be WCC because a feel that I am now a great asset and resource for my hospital and co workers.

I thoroughly enjoyed all the knowledge that I gleaned in both obtaining and maintaining my WCC credential. After working 44 years as an RN, I retired in 2018. I doubt if my knowledge of wound care will retire as I have retained all of my wound care information. Therefore it’s time to pass the mantle of my WCC to a RN who will be as eager to receive it as did I. Thank you for your wonderful organization that so thoroughly enhanced my career.
