Proper wound care is essential in minimising scarring around the wound and in helping to promote faster healing. It also reduces the risk of infections, which if left untreated can cause more serious issues that may require hospital admission.

Having our Care Professionals come to your home allows you to receive professional wound care in familiar surroundings. This can reduce stress and help you feel more at ease, which aids in recovery. It can also save the hassle and cost of travelling to receive the care at a hospital or clinic.

In addition to changing dressings and keeping the wound free of infection, you can also help boost your own healing process by following a healthy lifestyle. Ensuring enough vitamins and minerals are part of your diet or taken as supplements, can speed up your body’s recovery.

There is no one-size-fits-all solution when it comes to wound care; each one requires different levels of care and time to heal. Simple wounds are often managed by cleansing the wound, and applying dressings and medication to assist in promoting healing. Having support from our Care Professionals can allow you the rest you need to speed up the healing process.
