Wound Care LPN Jobs Overview

Interested in a career in the field of wound care? While this nursing specialty is usually performed by a registered nurse (RN), certain states allow licensed practical nurses (LPNs) — referred to as licensed vocational nurses (LVNs) in California and Texas — to perform wound care on patients under the supervision of an RN.

You can find a wide range of wound care LPN jobs on IntelyCare, the nation’s leading job board for nursing professionals. We have the latest full-time, part-time, contract, temporary, and per diem LPN postings to help you chart your career path. You can also check out related positions like home health LPN jobs and med-surg LPN jobs.

Education, Skills, and Certifications for LPN Wound Care Jobs

To qualify for any LPN position, you need to complete an LPN program approved by the state, pass the NCLEX-PN, and obtain licensure in your state so you can perform within the LPN scope of practice.

In a practice that involves caring for patients with a wide variety of wounds — from pressure injuries to stomas and ostomies — having additional certifications is one of the best ways to set yourself up for success. As an LPN, you can become certified as a Wound Treatment Associate (WTA). Among other things, this will add the following skills to your clinical background, boosting your chances of getting offers for wound care LPN jobs:

Monofilament testing
Familiarity with the ankle-brachial index (ABI)
The use of compression wraps
Negative pressure wound therapy

Resume and Cover Letter for LPN Wound Care Jobs

Once you’ve found open jobs that look like a good fit, the next step is to mirror your application to the needs of the hiring organization. As you ensure that your LPN resume is current and clearly highlights your education, training, and experience, be sure to pick up on the keywords and phrases used in the job posting and use them in your resume.

As an example, if a facility’s job posting states that it needs an LPN who “has experience with hyperbaric oxygen therapy,” then you should use the same phrasing in your resume if it applies to you. Hiring managers often rely on applicant tracking systems to sort through the volumes of applications they receive, so the more you can reflect their needs in your resume, the more likely your resume will make its way to the top of the stack.

But that just gets you past the first hurdle. Next, hiring managers are going to want to get a better picture of who you are, and whether you’d be a good fit for their organization. Enter your LPN cover letter. This document is a way to go deeper than the bullet points in your resume and highlight more dimensions of your experience and personality.

For example, if your resume talks about experience in hyperbaric chamber operations, then use your cover letter to highlight specific situations, as well as best practices that you’ve picked up while helping patients with this type of therapy. This adds extra depth to your application and can get hiring managers excited to follow up with an interview invite.

Interviewing for Wound Care LPN Jobs

If the most important function of your resume and cover letter is to get you the interview, the key purpose of the interview is to get you the job — if you want it. During this phase of the hiring process, managers are determining whether your experience and values are a match. But it’s a mutual process as you’re also deciding whether the job and workplace are a good fit for you.

As you review and prepare answers to common LPN interview questions, be sure to prepare your own questions about the mission, values, and operations of your prospective employer. This will not only impress the hiring team, but will also help you learn more about the organization and people you’d be working with.

Salary for LPN Wound Care Jobs

Working as an LPN, you can expect an average annual salary of $64,150 (about $30.84 per hour). Your specific salary would depend on a number of factors such as your experience level, the facility you’re applying to, and your location. If you’d like to know where you could earn the highest average salary as an LPN, here are some of the top states for pay:
