Wound care is important because chronic wounds can have serious consequences.

Non-healing wounds require specialized care because underlying, complex conditions prevent the wound from going through the expected healing stages. The longer a chronic wound goes untreated, the greater your risk of infection, amputation and other complications.

Wound care is a big problem. You are not alone.

Millions of people are living with chronic wounds in the United States, and the numbers are growing. Chronic wounds are more prevalent among the 30.3 million Americans diagnosed with diabetes, who have a 25 percent risk of developing a foot ulcer. Increased age, obesity, heart and vascular disease, cancer treatment and traumatic injury may also contribute to non-healing wounds.

Specialized wound care can be hard to access from general practitioners.

Primary care and community physicians do not typically undergo the advanced training required to truly understand a chronic wound and prescribe the best course of treatment. Eagle Rock Medical Center has unique technologies and therapeutics to treat some of the most difficult wounds.
