Wound Center

 

Located on the Parma Hospital campus in Medical Arts Center 2, the Wound Center is an outpatient program with an interdisciplinary team of physicians, nurses and support staff who offer specialized, comprehensive treatment for patients with chronic, non-healing ulcers and wounds

The wound team evaluates and treats the wound, establishes measures to prevent recurrence and informs the primary care physician of the patient’s progress. 

The primary care physician continues to manage the patient’s underlying medical condition.

Types of non-healing wounds treated include:

•diabetic, vascular, ischemic, venous stasis

•pressure ulcers

•non-healing surgical wounds

•insect/spider bites

•wounds due to trauma and skin/metastatic malignancies 

The interdisciplinary care at the Wound Center is designed to:

→ Complement the primary care physician’s overall medical care 

→ Prevent prolonged or permanent disability

→ Improve rate of limb salvage 

→ Decrease hospitalization

Specialists include podiatrists, infectious disease physicians and general and vascular surgeons.
