Wound Care Education Institute (WCEI)

The Wound Care Education Institute® (WCEI®) provides comprehensive training programs at locations throughout the U.S. in the fields of Skin and Wound Management, Diabetic Wound Management and Ostomy Management. Most courses are also made available in a self-paced computer-based module.

In 2002, experienced nurses and consultants Nancy Morgan and Donna Sardina noticed a disturbing trend in healthcare. Nurses and other healthcare professionals were passionate about wound care, but access to specialized wound education was either non-existent or limited.

Determined to find a way to improve wound care outcomes and practitioners’ careers, Nancy and Donna combined their shared passion for healing by creating hands-on wound care training and structured wound care education classes. The Wound Care Education Institute® mission is to impact the lives of both individual practitioners, and the patients in need of wound care.

Mission and Philosophy:
• To provide the highest quality wound and ostomy care education based on current standards of practice guidelines and evidence-based research to healthcare professionals, including all levels of nurses, registered dietitians, physical therapists, occupational therapists and physicians.
• To focus on practical rather than theoretical knowledge by teaching what will impact care at the bedside.
• To provide classes that are interesting, fun, high-energy and taught by top-notch instructors.
• To accommodate individual learning needs by offering nationwide onsite and online programs.
• To be an ongoing resource beyond certification for standards of care in the wound care field.
