What is a remote WOCN?

Remote WOCNs, or remote Wound, Ostomy, and Continence Nurses, are specialized nurses who provide expert care and consultation for patients with wound, ostomy, and continence issues through telehealth platforms. They assess patient needs, develop care plans, offer education, and support both patients and healthcare providers from a remote location, often using video calls or digital communication tools. This approach increases access to specialized care, especially for patients in rural or underserved areas, while maintaining high standards of clinical guidance and support.
