Wound Care FAQs
Q: What types of wounds are treated in the Wound Care Program?
A: Chronic and non-healing wounds due to complications from diabetes or caused by arterial and venous insufficiencies (poor circulation). Delayed surgical site wounds and pressure wounds are also treated.
Q: How do I know if I should see a wound care specialist instead of my primary doctor?
A: Any concerns involving a wound should first be seen by your primary care provider or by your surgeon if you have problems with your surgical wound, and they will help guide your treatment plan which could include a referral to a wound care specialist.
Q: What should I bring to my wound care appointment?
A: Guidance will be provided when making an appointment on what to bring; this will be dependent on the nature of your wound and the treatment plan in place.
Q: What happens if wounds are left untreated?
A: Infection, pain, limited mobility, nerve and tissue damage. If there are any concerns involving infection including chills, nausea, and/or fever, you should be seen by your local emergency department.
Q: What can I do at home to support wound healing between visits?
A: Following your visit, you will be provided with detailed instructions regarding wound care, dressing changes and medications. If you are diabetic, following a strict diet and taking medications prescribed by PCP can help. Complete labs, routinely scheduled foot exams can help prevent wounds.
