Wound Care services is very proud to be associated with La Vie Care. They specialise in the treatment of all kind of wounds eg: burn wounds, cancer wounds, insect bites, dog bites, venous ulcers, diabetic ulcers, amputated limbs, pressure ulcers, skin grafts and many more.
Wound Care services is part of a multi-disciplinary team and patients suffering from wound specific related problems are referred to either a Vascular Surgeon, Plastic Surgeon or a Medical practitioner. Treatment can be done as an out patient or when a patient is admitted to a facility. Treating doctors also receive weekly updates on the progress of the wounds.
The success of wound treatment lies in the following:
a patient’s psychological condition;
attitude and compliance in terms of the treatment;
consistency of appointments;
special diet
There has also been great success in maggot therapy, vac therapy and hyperbaric therapy.
Whether the patient is an in- or outpatient the following aspects of a patient’s treatment is taken into consideration:
Vascular management
Wound control
Microbiological control
Metabolic control
Patient education
It is our commitment to treat a patient in the most respectful and professional manner.
