Midland Health has announced that the Midland Health Wound Management Center is a recipient of the Center of Distinction award by Healogics, the nation’s largest provider of advanced wound care services.
The center achieved outstanding clinical outcomes for 12 consecutive months, including a patient satisfaction rate higher than 92 percent.
“Every day Dr. Melissa Alworth and our team strive to serve our patients with the best quality of care possible,” said Brad Robinson, Wound Management Center Program Director. “We are excited to be a Center of Distinction and be a part of leading healthcare for greater Midland.”
The Wound Management Center is a member of the Healogics network of more than 600 Wound Care Centers and offers highly specialized wound care to patients suffering from diabetic foot ulcers, pressure ulcers, infections and other chronic wounds which have not healed in a reasonable amount of time.
Advanced wound care modalities provided by wound care experts include negative pressure wound therapy, total contact casting, bio-engineered tissues, biosynthetic dressings and growth factor therapies.
The center also offers hyperbaric oxygen therapy, which works by surrounding the patient with 100 percent oxygen to help progress the healing of the wound.
