Clinicians may also open wound context from SN/LPN visit UI via a Wound control that leads into this worksheet.
18.2 Wound Care Note (visit form)
Wound Care Note is a separate visit form type used when a visit is scheduled/documented as a wound note — not the multi-wound flowsheet grid itself.
See Chapter 20: Visit Forms for the full form list.
18.3 Quick Checklist
- Flowsheet updated for active wounds
- Measurements and treatment narrative complete
- Use Wound Care Note visit when that form is ordered/scheduled
