Description

This ready-to-teach kit gives students the materials and guided instruction to create surprisingly realistic simulated wounds using everyday supplies like tissue paper, petroleum jelly, cocoa powder, coffee grounds, and simulated blood. Using these materials, students learn how to properly assess and care for simulated wounds. By the end of the lesson, students are able to identify and describe care procedures for 10 types of wounds, and can discuss infection control, the signs of infection, and the wound-healing process. The included "Wound Care Workshop" lesson plan provides structured instructor guidance so the activity is classroom-ready out of the box. All consumable supplies are included for a full class of 25 students, making this a practical single-purchase solution for wound care units. When packed up, this kit measures 20 L x 14-1/2 W x 4-1/2 H inches and weighs 9-2/5 pounds.
