WOUND CARE

VIBRA Specialty Hospital of Portland offers an advanced program for patients with poorly healing or non-healing wounds. We understand that wounds follow a healing progression, yet need an individualized plan of care to help facilitate healing. Wound care is provided 7 days a week under the management of certified wound nurses and a general/vascular surgeon. Upon assessment of the wound, the best treatment modalities will be recommended. This may also include pressure reducing mattresses or beds. Measurements and pictures are taken weekly to track the wounds progress. The wound care team utilizes a multi-disciplinary approach to wound care management that includes the expertise of our Primary Care Physicians, Registered Dietician, Physical Therapy staff, Occupational Therapy staff, Speech Therapist, and Nursing services. Our outcomes- focused program follows recognized standards of care that are research based, and have achieved excellent healing rates for surgical, vascular, diabetic and pressure related wounds. We offer multiple modalities to help facilitate the healing process including negative pressure therapy, along with our practices of advanced wound healing.
