Skin and wound care
Module journals are a place for you to reflect on the content and discuss how you have met the module objectives. In your journal, discuss how you have met each objective and give an example (i.e. readings, assignments, course activities). In addition, reflect on personal growth after completing module activities. Discuss how you will use the information in your current and/or future nursing practice. Did anything surprise you? Did this content alter or support your current thoughts on the content?
