Wound Management
Patient information
What we do
We have a particular interest in pressure injury prevention and management. We work with staff to put in place strategies to stop the development of pressure injuries, as well as how to care for them if they arise.
Who we care for
We work with other services in the hospital to provide specialist advice and care whilst you are in hospital. The teams we work with on a regular basis are:
We do, however, accept referrals from all teams in the hospital.
What to expect
We will see you when you're in the hospital if the team looking after you feels that you need specialised wound care and management.
We are a team of 3 nurse specialists who work across all hospital campuses.
If you require ongoing wound care on discharge, we can recommend the most appropriate service, such as Bolton Clarke or Post Acute Care.
How to access this service
No external referrals accepted
You can only access this service when you are staying in hospital or if you have been referred by an Alfred Health clinician.
