Here to Heal
At the Center for Wound Healing and Hyperbaric Medicine,
we treat the entire person to help you heal. Our staff will
help you understand the process of wound healing, describe
and explain what is happening every step of the way, chart
your progress as you move through the treatment process,
and give you all the information and advice you need once
your treatment is complete.
If your family members are involved in
your care, we will help them understand what is happening
and why their help and support is of critical importance
to your overall experience.
We encourage you to be an active
participant. Ask questions regarding your care. Know your
medications, their dosage, and why you are taking them.
With proper care, we expect all wounds to heal. Healing is
defined as complete closure of the wound without drainage.
Drainage, redness, and odor are absolutely abnormal. If any
of these occur, please call the Center for Wound Healing
and Hyperbaric Medicine at 208-489-5800.
