Wound care is critical to managing chronic conditions and supporting healing. Inspira offers a compassionate, all-encompassing approach that includes advanced treatments, comprehensive education and support to ensure patients throughout South Jersey receive the care they need.
What is Wound Care?
Wound care is the medical treatment of injuries or conditions that result in broken skin, ulcers or chronic sores. These wounds can be caused by underlying conditions like diabetes, poor circulation, pressure, surgical procedures or trauma. Timely treatment can prevent infection, enhance healing and improve overall quality of life.
Our Approach to Wound Care
At Inspira, we take a holistic approach to advanced wound care, recognizing that healing goes beyond treating the wound. We consider the factors that may affect your recovery—such as chronic conditions like diabetes, transportation barriers and medication access. Our team works closely with you to navigate the medical, social and financial aspects of wound treatment.
For diabetic patients, we offer specialized wound care education and dietetic services to ensure you understand how nutrition affects the healing process. We also collaborate with case management to coordinate patient discharge instructions and home health services to provide comprehensive care for patients with traumatic wounds or chronic conditions that may complicate recovery. We are committed to providing personalized, compassionate care that addresses each patient’s medical and logistical needs, ensuring the best possible outcomes for healing and recovery.
Wound Care Treatment and Services
Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT)
Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) enhances oxygen delivery to tissues, promoting faster healing in chronic wounds. This advanced therapy plays a key role in treating patients with slow-healing wounds, helping to accelerate recovery and improve outcomes.
Nutritional Support for Wound Healing
Proper nutrition is vital to wound healing, especially for people with diabetes. We provide personalized nutrition counseling, helping you understand how your diet affects wound healing. Nutrition counseling also includes guidance on managing blood sugar levels and incorporating nutrient-rich foods that support tissue repair and recovery.
Diabetic Foot Care
Diabetic foot ulcers, including neuropathic ulcers, are common among those with diabetes and can lead to serious complications if left untreated. Our team provides personalized care, including regular monitoring, wound debridement and education on managing your blood sugar levels and maintaining proper foot care.
Pressure-Related Wound Care
Pressure ulcers, also known as bedsores, can develop when prolonged pressure on the skin reduces blood flow, often affecting people who are bedridden or use wheelchairs. We provide advanced treatments, including wound debridement and specialized dressings, to promote healing and prevent further complications.
Treatment for Vascular Wounds
Poor circulation can result in vascular wounds, including arterial, venous and ischemic ulcers. We offer comprehensive care that includes wound management, pressure relief and working with a team of specialists to improve circulation and support overall healing.
Surgical Wound Treatment
Surgical wounds require careful management to prevent infection and ensure proper healing. We provide post-surgical wound care, paying attention to hygiene, dressing changes and monitoring for signs of infection to ensure optimal recovery.
Additional Wound Care Services
Negative Pressure Wound Therapy (NPWT)
What Sets Inspira Apart?
Inspira’s approach to wound care goes beyond medical treatment. We provide comprehensive support, including case management to help you access resources, medications and transportation. We understand that issues like diabetic ulcers or vascular wounds may require ongoing care and attention, so we offer flexible appointments and nursing visits to accommodate your schedule.
We serve patients from both urban and rural areas, and this diversity doesn't affect the quality of care you receive. We collaborate closely with home health organizations and local nursing homes to ensure patients with chronic or traumatic wounds continue their care even after discharge. We provide personalized guidance on how diet and lifestyle choices can affect healing, giving you the tools for long-term recovery.
