For nearly 25 million Americans, the aging process, diabetes and other conditions lead to chronic, non-healing wounds. In some cases, these wounds can take weeks, months or even years to fully heal, dramatically affecting the quality of life.

Chronic wounds are often treated in homes, hospitals, outpatient physical therapy, physicians’ offices and other health care environments. But in many cases, the focus is on the wound itself and not the factors that are preventing the healing process.

By listening, planning and acting with the best possible resources, Proctor Hospital has founded a wound care clinic to meet this special need.
