Recent breakthroughs in wound care mean we can restore your natural healing process without invasive treatments. The Centers approach to wound prevention, care, and management has resulted in successful outcomes for even the most complex cases.
Our wound care centers in NYC are made up of a team of wound-specialist physicians, nurse practitioners, and registered nurses that assess not only your wound, but your overall health, promoting optimum recovery.
We work hard to put you at ease. By making you as comfortable as possible, we provide an environment that promotes and supports wound treatment and healing as well as pain management and relief.
Our wound care skilled nursing facilities manage all types of wounds, including surgical, diabetic, vascular, and pressure ulcers, we have expertise in wound debridement and dressing, anti-infectives, and more.
Ms. Fernandez is a diabetic and was admitted to Martine Center after having one leg amputated at the knee. She was also suffering from a diabetic ulcer on her other foot. Her situation was complicated by the fact that she doesn’t speak English. We made a note to always have a Spanish-speaking member of our staff present during all her treatments.
Our treatment was two-fold: cleansing the foot ulcer with soap and water daily and applying antibiotic ointment, while also providing daily physical therapy to teach her how to walk with her prosthetic. We also changed her diet to facilitate healing. Her wounds healed within weeks, saving her from another amputation. She has made extraordinary progress.
“Soon I’ll be able to walk on my own. Maybe I’ll run a marathon! So, I have two words for the team at Martine Center: Muchas gracias.”
