What types of wounds do you care for besides bed sores?
In addition to bed sores, our team treats diabetic foot wounds and venous leg ulcers. We create individualized plans to support healing for each type of wound and guide patients through the full recovery process.
How do your Wound Care Specialists support healthcare providers after discharge?
We work with hospitals, skilled nursing facilities, and discharge planners to maintain continuity of care. Our specialists bring advanced treatment to the home setting, helping wounds heal more effectively and lowering the chance of hospital readmission.
What are bed sores?
Bed sores, also called pressure sores, develop when constant pressure reduces blood flow to an area of skin. They are most common in people with limited mobility, such as those recovering from surgery or living with spinal injuries. Our specialists provide in-home evaluations and treatment to manage these wounds before they worsen.
How do you treat bed sores at home?
We use advanced methods like wound debridement, negative pressure wound therapy, and customized dressings. Treatment depends on the wound’s severity, whether there is broken skin, and the patient’s overall health.
What are common risk factors for developing bed sores?
Risk factors include immobility, older age, poor nutrition, incontinence, and chronic health conditions. These factors can weaken skin cells and make individuals more likely to develop pressure sores.
What is a risk assessment for bed sores?
A risk assessment identifies the likelihood of bed sores forming by reviewing issues such as circulation problems or limited mobility. This helps us design prevention and treatment strategies customized to each patient.
How do you recognize a bed sore at home?
Early signs can include redness, warmth, or tenderness in the affected skin. As the sore progresses, the wound can deepen and cause pain. We monitor these changes during each visit to guide timely treatment.
Where do bed sores usually form?
Bed sores/pressure wounds most often develop on bony areas such as the heels, hips, sacrum, and elbows. These locations are prone to impaired wound healing because of sustained pressure and reduced blood flow.
Can you help prevent new bed sores?
Yes. Prevention is a major part of our care. We educate our patients and caregivers on repositioning techniques, supportive surfaces, and nutrition strategies that lower the chance of new wounds forming.
How do you manage a suspected deep tissue injury?
If deeper tissue damage is suspected but the outer layer looks intact, we act right away. Our team relieves pressure, improves circulation, and applies treatments designed to protect the area before the sore breaks through.
What types of wound dressings do you use for bed sores?
Dressings are chosen based on the sore’s size, depth, and location. Some help absorb drainage, while others shield the wound from infection or promote new tissue growth. Each dressing is part of a personalized care plan.
How can I relieve pressure to help a wound heal?
To relieve pressure points on the skin, we recommend frequent repositioning, using support surfaces, and following personalized care strategies. This helps reduce skin breakdown and supports open wound healing.
