The Wound Care program treats patients with impaired tissue integrity who are at high risk for complications. Treatment includes an evaluation, assessment and plan for treatment performed at the patient's bedside by a Wound Care team. In addition, patients receive physical rehabilitation, wound management education and guidance from a nutritionist.
Often, an underlying medical problem is the source of a wound that will not heal. We will work in partnership with your primary care physician to understand your health history and to provide updates on your progress.
As part of our comprehensive approach to healing, Wound Healing Services offers specialized treatment in:
- Internal medicine
- Dermatology
- General surgery
- Infectious disease
- Plastic surgery
- Vascular disease
- Nutrition
Our outpatient program allows you to seek treatment when it is convenient. Our staff will help you schedule appointments on days that work best for you and can rearrange appointments when necessary to accommodate your schedule. If you or a loved one has a wound that will not heal, ask your doctor about Methodist Healthcare Wound Healing Services or contact us at one of our convenient locations.
