It depends on what and where the wound is and the cause. If it's an open-wound in an area that is used and will become irritated regularly, then the wound will likely take longer to heal. If there is an underlying infection that is not being treated, the wound will take longer to heal as well. However, if the proper antibiotics, pain-relief medication, etc is being given and the patient is receiving proper bed rest, the wound may take as little as 2-3 weeks to fully heal.
