Wound Care

Baptist Medical Center Beaches has made a major commitment to the specialized area of wound care by creating a dedicated Center for Wound Care and Hyperbaric Medicine. Our center takes a comprehensive approach to wound care developing individualized treatment plans, coordinating care, and providing education on wound care at home to facilitate the healing process. And we do it all on a convenient, outpatient basis. Our range of services include:

Your first appointment will consist of a thorough diagnostic examination to identify the type of wound you have, underlying problems causing the wound and your overall health status. Based on this evaluation, a customized treatment plan will be developed for you. We will work with your primary or referring physician to ensure coordination of all your medical services. We will also show you how to take care of your wound at home between visits and protect it from further injury. Wound care visits last approximately 30 to 60 minutes. Hyperbaric treatments last approximately 2 to 2.5 hours.
