Our facility places a top priority on healing and rehabilitating our residents to return them to their homes. We admit patients with chronic or complex wounds because we are equipped to treat them with our specialized wound management program.
We have partnered with Vohra Wound physicians to bring physician – led bedside Wound Care to our facility. A Vohra wound physician visits our facility weekly to treat our residents with wound and skin issues. We also have a Wound Care Certified Nurse on our team. This reduces the need to send our residents out to wound care centers or hospitals.
Our multi special specialty team treats, all types of wounds, including pressure, ulcers, venous ulcers, arterial wounds, diabetic neuropathic, wounds, post-surgical wounds and other others.
Our facility has an interdisciplinary team to care for our residents. The Wound physician works with the primary care, physicians, physical therapists, staff nurses and other specialist to ensure our residents are receiving excellent wound care.
As long-term facilities continue to provide more specialized services with complex ailments, the presence of a wound physician is an important link in providing superior care.
