Wound Care

Wound Care with a Ray of Sunshine

Our skin is amazing. It protects us from external contaminants, cools us when we sweat, accounts for about 15% of our body weight, and has the capacity to heal itself. But when healing does not occur properly, the wound can become a serious problem.

Sunshine’s on-staff Certified Wound Care nurse and associated health care professional assist with the care of patients dealing with troublesome, unhealed wounds.

Multiple Causes. Multiple Treatments.

Wounds occur because of many reasons — injury, lack of blood flow, and disease are common causes. Some wounds may not heal on their own and, if unaddressed, can get larger, more painful, and cause dangerous patient complications from an infection.

Proper wound care is critical — especially when recovering from an injury, managing personal health affected by diabetic or venous ulcers, and wounds caused by pressure or a lack of sensation.

At Sunshine Health Facilities, wound care is a top priority. Patients receive a tailored wound care program administered by a wound specialist. On-staff physicians and registered nurse practitioners are on-site five days a week to handle other medical needs that arise during wound treatment.

Sunshine provides all types of wound care in our facility and at home, including administering IVs, pressure bandages, negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) and many more. It’s surprising how many wound treatment options patients can receive at home. Many chronic and other serious wounds can be safely and expertly cared for by our wound care team without requiring ER or hospital visits.
