With the aging of America, the demand for Wound, Ostomy and Continence (WOC) nursing specialists is at an all time high. As many nurses reach retirement age, how long will it be before there are no more WOC specialists to care for our patients?
It is obvious that preparing the next generation of WOC nurses has never been more important. That's why WOCN® partnered with one of its founding members, Dr. Katherine Jeter, to create its most comprehensive fundraising event to date: WOCN® Society's Cycling for Scholarships – a national event designed to create awareness and raise support for the WOCN Foundation Scholarship Program.
