Acute and Chronic Wounds

Long-term wounds can be some of the most frustrating and difficult conditions to treat—for patients and clinicians alike. Unlike acute wounds, which follow a predictable healing process, chronic wounds stall due to underlying factors like diabetes, poor circulation, immobility, or repeated trauma. These wounds are more than surface-level injuries—they reflect deeper systemic imbalances that must be addressed to achieve true healing.

Our clinical team understands the complexity behind wounds that linger. We don’t just apply dressings; we assess the whole person—looking at medical history, lifestyle, risk factors, and the wound’s behavior over time. This comprehensive approach allows us to deliver targeted therapies designed to promote tissue regeneration, reduce infection risk, and track healing with precision and compassion.

Chronic wounds can develop from a variety of causes, and knowing the source is key to determining the right care path.

• Diabetic Ulcers
• Venous Ulcers
• Arterial Ulcers
• Surgical wounds
• Pressure Ulcers (bed sores)
• Burns and Lacerations

No two wounds—or patients—are the same. Our wound care specialists use a range of evidence-based techniques tailored to the wound type and patient needs.

• Advanced Wound Assessment: Each visit includes a detailed review of the wound’s size, depth, drainage, and tissue condition to ensure the care plan evolves appropriately.
• Infection Control: Clinicians use antimicrobial dressings and collaborate with physicians to manage or prevent infections when indicated.
• Moisture Management: The right balance of moisture is maintained to prevent the wound from drying out or becoming too wet, both of which can delay healing.
• Selective Debridement: When necessary, we carefully remove dead or unhealthy tissue to help new, healthy tissue grow.
• Circulatory Support: For venous and arterial ulcers, we may apply compression or recommend vascular evaluations to improve blood flow.
• Pressure Offloading: We use custom padding, support surfaces, or footwear modifications to relieve pressure on vulnerable areas, especially for pressure and diabetic ulcers.
• Ongoing Monitoring and Education: Progress is continuously tracked through measurements and documentation. Patients and caregivers are guided on home care routines, warning signs, and how to support healing between visits.

Our goal is not only to heal the wound but also to prevent future complications. Chronic wounds demand patience, clinical skill, and trust—and we bring all three to every encounter.
