The cause of the problem is poor wound healing secondary to diabetes. Nursing priorities include interventions directed at enhancing wound healing. Teaching the patient about signs and symptoms of infection will help the patient identify signs of appropriate wound healing and know when the need for calling the health care provider arises. Performing dressing changes, controlling blood sugars through administration of medications, and involving the family in dressing changes all contribute to wound healing. Although the patient possibly has altered body image related to the wound, counseling the patient about coping strategies addresses body image, not wound healing.
