My mission is for you to own your seat at the table of nurse entrepreneurship, gaining confidence, skills, and freedom to live your life on your own terms. You will dream big and expand your consciousness as an entrepreneur.- Tina Baxter, Show Host and Founder of The Nurse Shark Academy. About Lydia Corum Lydia A. Corum, MSN, RN, CWCN, is a Registered Nurse and seasoned Legal Nurse Consultant who specializes in wound care merit reviews for attorneys handling medical malpractice, personal injury, and long-term care cases. With over 20 years of clinical experience in wound care and a deep understanding of legal processes, she brings clarity, objectivity, and expert insight to even the most complex medical cases. As a Merit Review Specialist, she plays a critical role at the earliest stage of litigation — reviewing medical records, identifying deviations from the standard of care, evaluating causation, and helping attorneys determine whether a case has true legal merit before significant time and resources are invested. She is also the author of Beyond the Surface, a practical guide designed to help nurses and aspiring LNCs understand the process of merit reviews, navigate wound care-related legal cases, and build confidence in their consulting skills. The workbook breaks down real-world case analysis and teaches how to approach documentation, timelines, and medical evidence with a legal mindset. Lydia is passionate about supporting attorneys with unbiased, evidence-based reviews and mentoring other nurses who want to expand their impact beyond the bedside.
