North
Pavilion, Main Floor
708.229.6060
Behind the double doors of Little Company's Center for
Complete Wound Care and Hyperbaric Therapy, a multidisciplinary treatment team
is working hard to manage acute and chronic wounds and possibly eliminate the
threat of amputation. The program includes extensive wound assessments using the
most recent advanced topical wound care agents, vacuum assisted closure (V.A.C.)
therapy; lymphedema management; ostomy care and hyperbaric oxygen therapy.
Wound care is integrated
into a patient's ongoing health care with the support of the patient's attending
physician. Patients are followed for a prescribed amount of weekly treatments
that usually averages around six to eight weeks. Qualified wound care
specialists provide weekly progress reports to the patients' referring
physicians. The patients then return to the referring physician for their
ongoing care.
The Center
for Complete Wound Care and Hyperbaric Therapy is conveniently located at the
North Pavilion entrance to the hospital with valet and nearby outpatient parking
available. The highly trained staff includes qualified wound care physicians, as
well as nurses and technicians who are trained and/or certified in wound ostomy
and continence nursing and hyperbaric oxygen therapy. For more information call
708.229.6060.
