Services
Our services combine to offer you the most complete level of care, and include:
Evaluation and wound assessment
Upon arrival, every patient is given our thorough attention. Your medical history and the causes of your wound may be discussed, and your entire wound site will be carefully examined to confirm diagnosis, and direct the proper treatment.
Treatment plans
Every patient benefits from an individualized care plan tailored to your unique wound needs and other medical factors. Your plan is created by our interdisciplinary team of wound care experts, including nurses, registered dietitians, nurse practitioners, and physicians specializing in plastic surgery, infectious diseases, vascular surgery, podiatry, internal medicine, and hyperbaric oxygen therapy.
Education
During and following treatment, patients receive an education and assistance plan. This includes information on caring for wounds at home, nutrition tips, and guidelines for patients to encourage the healing process.
Ongoing treatment for non-healing wounds
Those suffering from diabetes, poor circulation, or other health conditions are often at a higher risk for non-healing wounds. For these patients, we provide ongoing care and support, with scheduled visits based on the severity of your condition.
Treatments
Depending on the type and severity of your wound, your treatment may include:
Debridement
Using the latest techniques and training, our wound care staff remove dead tissue from the wound, making room for new healthy tissue.
Pressure wound relief
Our staff treats and relieves pain from existing wounds and prevents new pressure wounds by using or recommending better support surfaces like seat cushions, footwear, and special beds, or mattresses.
Infection control
Using biopsies or blood cultures, our wound care staff will identify any causes of infection and treat it with the proper antibiotics.
Compression therapy
This therapy uses elastic stockings or bandages to increase blood flow, prevent blood pooling, and decrease swelling.
Vacuum-assisted wound closure
With this therapy, we apply negative pressure or suction to remove blood, and other fluids from the wound site, which enables better healing.
