The Wound, Ostomy, and Continence Nursing Certification Board (WOCNCB) is
exploring the potential opportunity for LPNs/LVNs or RNs with an Associate or Diplomalevel
education to demonstrate proficiency in wound, ostomy and/or continence nursing.
Following formal classroom education and precepted clinical experience, the knowledge
and skill level of the clinician can be validated by a psychometrically sound and legally
defensible examination – within their scope of practice.
If you are a LPN/LVN or RN with an Associate or Diploma-level education, or
have a team member working in the areas wound, ostomy and/or continence, we invite
participation in a job analysis survey regarding current practice. Please send contact
information to Kathy Meyer via email to info@wocncb.org or call 1-888-496-2622, no
later than February 15, 2008.
The Wound, Ostomy and Continence Nursing Certification Board promotes the
