Wound & Ostomy Care

Everybody heals differently and various factors can affect this healing process. If your healing process is disrupted, you may be left with sores, wounds or infections that are unable to or very slow to heal. That’s where our certified wound care providers can help.

Our team is specially trained in acute and chronic wound care, including being Wound Care Certified WCC, Diabetic Wound Certified DWC, a Certified Wound Specialist Physician CWSP, and Ostomy Management Specialist OMS.

Our experts will create a comprehensive plan for healing your wounds. This will involve a thorough evaluation, wound cultures and vascular studies and may also include pain and nutrition management, physical therapy, infectious disease and diabetes management. 

If you have any of the following conditions, you may be at risk for developing non-healing wounds:

  • Diabetes
  • Peripheral vascular disease
  • Traumatic injury
  • Complications following surgery
  • Rheumatoid arthritis
  • Congestive heart failure

Ostomy patients deserve to receive professional medical support, stoma nursing care and psychosocial support in both the pre and postoperative stage.
