Health Occupations Students in Mrs. Amy Rankin’s class at the Clearfield County Career and Technology Center (CCCTC) are currently learning about wound assessment and care.  Wound care and treatment is an important process to avoid serious complications. Without proper care, a wound can turn into a serious infection, such as cellulitis or sepsis.
