In order to provide the greatest access and convenience for patients in need of complex wound care, our unique program includes leading-edge capabilities generally found only in acute care hospitals. Amberwood is also among the very few non-hospital facilities whose full-time staff includes a certified wound ostomy nurse. This experienced specialist plays an active role in assessing, diagnosing, training, and overseeing all wound care procedures and protocols on an ongoing, on-site basis.

From initial assessment through discharge, each patient’s comprehensive, personalized treatment plan is focused squarely on achieving optimum healing in a timely manner. Toward that end, we utilize many of the most innovative and technologically advanced resources in the field. Moreover, our program places a priority on wound prevention and self-management, incorporating these critically important procedures into our unique “whole person” approach to care.

The program is designed to treat a wide range of problems, including:

• Diabetic ulcers
• Pressure ulcers
• Arterial and venous ulcers
• Burns
• Infections
• Surgical wounds
• Amputations
• Other complex wounds resulting from diabetes, traumatic injury, surgical breakdown, congestive heart failure, vascular disease, incontinence, obesity, renal failure, lymphedema and other conditions that compromise circulation.
