Who Needs Professional Wound Care Service?
Professional wound care service is needed for individuals at risk of pressure sores due to being bedridden or having limited mobility, those with a chronic illness such as diabetes that delays wound healing, those with a chronic wound, or those who need wound care after surgery. The need for wound care mostly arises together with limited mobility or chronic illnesses. At GAYA Huzurevi, this process is carried out meticulously by our expert nursing staff and under doctor supervision.
Pressure Sore Care and Prevention
We work to prevent pressure sores that can form in residents who stay in bed for long periods, through regular repositioning and skin checks; we also meticulously treat any sores that do form with our expert nursing staff. For our residents with limited mobility, we apply a position-changing routine at set intervals, minimizing the formation of new wounds.
Chronic Wound Monitoring and Dressing
We closely monitor chronic wounds that take time to heal, such as diabetic wounds, through regular dressing and doctor supervision. Regularity is of great importance for this type of wound; each dressing is applied based on an assessment of the wound’s condition.
Infection Risk Monitoring
Through regular assessment of wounds for infection, we catch possible complications early and intervene quickly under doctor supervision. This early intervention plays a decisive role in preventing a simple wound from turning into a serious infection.
Doctor-Supervised Treatment Process
The entire wound care process is regularly applied by our nursing staff according to the treatment plan set by our doctor. We also regularly keep our families informed throughout this process.
Its Connection to Post-Surgery Wound Care
Wound care is also a natural part of our post-surgery care process. Wound and dressing monitoring at the surgical site is carried out by the same expert nursing staff, as part of the overall recovery process.
