BODY PARTS
Nurse Body Part: What the nurse is using during their care
Helper Body Part: Any body part the person aiding the nurse is using; helper can be anyone helping with wound care (e.g., patient themselves, aid, patient care technician, another nurse, visitor/family member)
Patient Body Part: Body part being manipulated or interacted with; note that the patient body part is not always where the wound is but a body part that has to be moved
