"I am honored to be chosen for this amazing opportunity. Becoming Wound Care Certified has been a personal and professional goal of mine for the past 11 years. I feel wound care is often a specialty that provides additional support for other specialties such as internal medicine. Our specialty not only treats the wound, but discusses at each visit: nutrition, medications, glycemic control, hygiene and offloading. These topics help heal the wounds and provide general health education. I am excited for the professional opportunity to represent wound care with a certification."
"I'm still in disbelief that I was selected for this opportunity. I have had the pleasure to work at Memorial Wound Care for 7 years. Starting out as an LPN Hyperbaric Technician, then as an RN case manager. Over these 7 years, I have learned and gained so much wound knowledge. Thanks to this scholarship, I get to put all that knowledge to use. I finally can achieve a career goal of mine to become Wound Care Certified. I am forever grateful and anxious to get started!"

"I read a quote by the author N’Golo Kante saying “It’s good to win awards but the most important is to win together.” When I win, we all win and in the long run, good things can happen. Compassion and passion go hand in hand and with both, good things can happen. I have the passion for wound care and compassion for people and with knowledge and becoming certified in the field of wound care, good things can happen!"
"I am so thankful for this Wound Hero scholarship to obtain my WCC certification. This certification will not only benefit myself, but it will also benefit all of the patients I care for living with chronic wounds. This certification will also allow me to continue to expand my knowledge and expertise is wound care which is my greatest passion."
"I am so excited to be given the opportunity to be educated and gain certification in wound care. I plan on using the gained knowledge to impact the lives of many skilled nursing residents by sharing my knowledge with my colleagues which will impact and improve resident care."
