Summary

The purpose of this study is to examine a different way to educate patients about taking care of their wound and see how this method affects patient satisfaction, compliance to the wound care regimen, and patient experience.

The teach-back method is delivered using the ask-tell-ask method. Investigators will ask the patient about their knowledge of wound care healing, provide the patient educational component, then ask the patient to repeat what was said. If the answer is wrong or incomplete, the researcher will go over the information again with the patient to clear up any misunderstandings.
