Vohra Wound Physicians, the leading wound care management organization in the United States, officially launched a full Spanish version of their online certification course, extending the availability of the educational platform to a larger international audience. The Vohra Wound Care Certification, initially designed by Vohra physicians to train nurses and physicians alike in wound care management, will now allow Spanish-speaking students to take video courses and read accompanying study guides online in their native tongue.

The platform, accessible on all mobile devices, including smartphones and tablets, will provide 9 core video modules and 1 bonus module with Spanish narration, and students can earn up to 16 US-accredited Continuing Nurse Education (CNE) credits in addition to wound care certification.

“As the leading provider of wound care education, offering Spanish language courses represents a small part of our efforts to expand expert wound care to more people than ever before,” said Dr. Japa Volchok, Director of Operations of Vohra Wound Physicians and the project leader of the Wound Care Certification. “Ultimately, in addition to our Spanish courses, we want to extend our international courses into several languages, including German, French, Arabic, and much more.”

The credits gained from the Vohra Wound Care Certification have been approved by the Maryland Nurses Association (MNA) and are recognized by the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC), meeting national nursing standards for quality continuing education.

“Our educational program gives nurses the training needed to properly care for wounds in the geriatric population,” added Dr. Volchok. “With the growth of wound care as a serious field in the healthcare space, we believe that this is well overdue.”

Vohra Wound Physicians, the nation’s leading wound care management service organization, officially announced the launch of their redesigned and updated Wound Care Certification online course. Originally designed to afford nurses, doctors, and others to learn about wound care from expert physicians, Vohra’s new platform and freemium model allows students to not only take video courses and read accompanying study guides online, but they are also able to earn Continuing Nursing Education (CNE) credits and a nationally recognized Wound Care Nurse Certification.

The website’s new user interface was designed to function on all mobile devices, including smartphones and tablets, by making it responsive and more easily navigable, with standardized ‘hamburger’ menu buttons, video compatibility, and better integration with standardized software.

“As the recognized leader in the field of wound care, and as an organization that continually stays at the forefront of technological and digital advancement, we see this update as a natural extension of our company’s values,” said Dr. Japa Volchok, Director of Operations of Vohra Wound Physicians and the project leader of the Wound Care Certification.

The course, designed by wound care experts on staff at Vohra, contains 11 video modules, plus two bonus modules, covering topics such as acute and chronic wounds, vascular ulcer treatment, geriatric skin conditions, atypical wounds, and infection control, as well as issues such as nutrition and federal regulations. It is available for nurses and other health professionals in the U.S. and internationally.

The credits earned through the course are approved by the Maryland Nurses Association (MNA), and they are recognized by the American Nurses Credentialing Center (ANCC), thus meeting national standards for quality continuing education for nurses.

In addition to its contribution to the education of the health care community, Vohra is renowned for bringing wound care to skilled nursing and long-term care facilities. Facilities that meet elevated standards of wound care, such as low wound-related rehospitalization rates and sufficiently trained staff, can receive the designation of a Vohra Center of Excellence. In fact, one of the requirements is to have staff with the requisite Wound Care Certification offered online.

“We see our role as one of constant improvement,” said Dr. Volchok, “both internally as we improve our own processes and resources, and externally, helping patients receive better care, facilities receive improved outcomes, and nurses receive higher quality education in the field of wound care.”

Vohra Wound Physicians is a physician group dedicated to bringing wound healing to patients, with over 250 doctors working in over 2500 facilities across 27 states. For more information, visit https://vohrawoundcare.com.
