St. Luke’s Center for Wound Care at Kirby Glen is a specialty outpatient diagnostic and therapeutic center for acute and chronic non-healing wounds. Our patients are under the care of physicians specializing in wound care treatment and therapy. Treatment focuses on the cause of the wound, co-existing conditions that impact wound healing, wound management and patient education.
A patient-specific plan of care is developed with the use of established, evidenced-based, clinical practice guidelines. Appropriateness and quality of care are carefully monitored to achieve optimal healing. Patients may be referred by a physician, health care worker or self-referred.
Conditions that generally benefit from specialized wound management include:
- Arterial ulcers
- Diabetic foot ulcers
- Pressure ulcers
- Venous Stasis ulcers
- Vasculitic ulcers
- Chronic wounds
- Non-healing surgical wounds
- Traumatic wounds
Wound Center physicians may order or perform additional procedures to assess and assist in closure of the non-healing wound, such as:
- Outpatient diagnostic studies
- Laboratory specimens for differential diagnosis
- Vacuum-assisted wound closure
- Sharp debridement
- Application of bioengineered skin products
- Application of specialty medications appropriate to the wound care treatment plan
- Additional referrals to other healthcare professionals if needed
St. Luke's Center for Wound Care clinical staff specializes in wound care assessment, treatment and therapeutic regimes. The goal of our dedicated staff at the Center for Wound Care is to provide quality care and favorable outcomes and to maintain communication with your physician to facilitate your continued care.
