Wound Center

Our Philosophy of Care

Our Center's purpose is to preserve and improve human life by providing a comprehensive program of clinical wound care. We believe by proactively addressing wound care problems within a dedicated clinical center of excellence we can optimize clinical outcomes in a cost-effective manner. We believe in integrating all the appropriate medical disciplines, both within and outside the Center, through a uniform program of clinical pathways and protocols.

This structured multidisciplinary approach to care enables us to determine root causes of resistance to healing and achieve resolution through an individualized patient care plan. We are committed to providing our patients optimal care with dignity and respect. Every consideration is given to accommodate patients' physical, spiritual and emotional needs as an integral part of the healing process. Wellness and prevention education is an essential part of our care plans.

Healing a Wound

For most people, wound healing is a natural, uneventful process. For some individuals, however, it becomes a complex medical problem requiring specialized treatment and care. The Comprehensive Wound Healing Center provides a multidisciplinary program of treatment and support services for the cost-effective management of acute and chronic problem wounds. Our full continuum of care includes extensive wound assessment, treatment based on advanced medical methodologies, pain management, patient education and support services. Since problem wounds are often associated with other underlying medical conditions, our program is specifically designed to integrate wound care with ongoing health care. We coordinate wound treatment plans with the patient's primary care and specialty care physicians to ensure that each patient's individual needs are met.
