Everything necessary to heal.
We understand that having a chronic wound takes a toll both physically and emotionally. We provide the most advanced wound care available, in a state-of-the-art facility, with a highly trained, experienced and compassionate
staff. We tailor treatment plans to each individual and seek to
empower patients in their wound healing through education and
lifestyle modification.
If you are suffering from a chronic, non-healing wound, ask your provider
about a referral to CAWC. We will work with you and
your provider to determine the best form of treatment based on your overall health and lifestyle. Some of the treatment and therapies we offer include:
Advanced Wound Dressings
Advanced wound dressings are
typically prescribed by clinicians after a visit to a doctor or
hospital. The benefits of using advanced wound dressings include
shortened heal time, optimized drainage and reduced risk of infection.
The Ideal Dressing
Each wound is unique. That's why we tailor our approach to provide the most beneficial wound dressing to meet the individual needs.
These are the characteristics of the ideal dressings:
Fill the body with pure OXYGEN!
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) is often an integral part of our treatment plans. HBOT is a therapy used to speed up healing of carbon monoxide poisoning, gangrene,
wounds
that won't heal, and infections in which tissues are starved for oxygen.
For this therapy, you enter a special
chamber to breathe in 100% pure oxygen in air pressure levels 1.5 to 3 times higher than
average. The goal is to fill the blood with enough oxygen to repair tissue and restore
normal body function.
A person with a wound should seek medical attention if:
1. If the wound is large, deep, or has jagged edges...
2. If the edges of the wound do not stay together...
3. If you have symptoms of an infection, such as fever, increasing pain or redness, or discharge from the wound.
