VATA’s anatomical healthcare model, 0950 Wilma™ Wound Foot is molded from an 80-year old patient for a realistic appearance. Twenty different conditions are presented on this VATA model so you can see and understand how they differ. Great care has been taken to hand paint each wound just as they would be seen on a patient for the most life-like patient wound simulation. Once the different etiologies are understood, they can be discussed and a treatment plan devised that will deliver optimized patient care.
Wound assessment has become critical as inaccurate wound assessment can misdirect the plan of care, affect reimbursement, cause inaccurate reporting of patient outcomes and the appearance of potential adverse events. This VATA Inc. healthcare simulation model is an effective tool for educating healthcare professionals and patients in would identification, staging of wounds, and their probable etiologies. Wilma™ Wound Foot is also an excellent visual aid for educating those who cannot read well enough to understand basic health care information, allowing them to see what can occur without proper wound care. Routine cleansing and dressing changes can be taught and practiced on all the wounds by healthcare providers, patients, families, and caregivers.
This VATA model is made of flexible material permitting the toes to be moved for closer examination or the application of dressings. This unique material permits the application and removal of dressings without leaving adhesive residue, when used according to supplied instructions.
