Caring for patients with chronic wounds is an increasing problem and choosing a provider that recognizes and address the needs of these patients is so vital. Wound care patients often have co-morbidities and chronic conditions as health care evolves towards a patient Centered Care Model, a comprehensive treatment that extends beyond the wound itself ensures an effective wound management and prevention. Studies showed that patient outcomes are better when care is provided in an environment of focused expertise.
Heal at Home™ specializes in the evaluation and treatment of acute and chronic non-healing wounds resulting from Diabetes, Peripheral Arterial/Vascular disease, post surgical complications which can be exacerbated by obesity, poor nutrition and infection. As the aging population grows, so is the risk of pressure ulcers.
We certainly understand the seriousness and challenges of the above conditions so we develop strategies of care that are proven to work and implemented individualized treatment options as well as general wound management principles applicable to all varieties of chronic wounds.
