HEALING PEOPLE

one wound at a time

OUR MISSION

SKP Wound Care’s trained medical providers specialize in treating acute and chronic non-healing wounds. We use state-of-the-art medical technology, products, and practices to treat and heal advanced wounds.

SKP WOUND CARE KNOWS WHAT YOU NEED

Non-healing wounds are devastating for those who suffer from them, and for their caregivers as well. If not treated properly, they could lead to hospitalization, amputation, or death. To ensure the best possible outcome, our specialized providers will come to you for assessment, review your case history, verify your coverage, develop a care plan, and coordinate treatment.

Do you or a patient in your care or facility:

Struggle with treatment challenges in the healing process?

Have a wound that has not improved in the past 30 days?

Wish to quicken or simply support your recovery?

Our team is ready to serve you!
