OET Listening الجزء B: Wound Care Procedure Instructions

Before changing the dressing, if there are any particular instructions regarding how to deal with Mrs. Harris or the ulcer,

you'll be given them at the start of the shift.

You won't ever have to access her records yourself and scroll through everything.

There's an equipment checklist here with the type of cleaning solution and forceps you need,

so you'll know that off by heart.

You'll see that a face mask isn't essential, though some nurses prefer to have one.

As you know very well, you should chat to Mrs. Harris very briefly about what you'll be doing,

even when she gets familiar with the routine.

Now please take great care in recording the condition of the skin surrounding the wound,

plus the presence of any sort of inflammation, discoloration, or odor.

This assessment has got to be thorough.

Then get her in a position that's comfortable for her, and you can begin.
