Practice expands at-home wound care
Led by Medical Director Susan Kinnison, MD, CWSP, the mobile wound care practice provides advanced wound care in Roanoke VA for patients managing chronic and non-healing wounds. The home-based model is designed to give homebound patients and caregivers access to complex wound care without frequent trips to hospitals or clinics.Chronic wounds can be difficult to manage, particularly for older adults, people with limited mobility and patients with conditions such as diabetes or vascular disease. Wounds that do not heal can remain vulnerable to complications and affect patients’ quality of life.
Skin substitutions are placed over a properly prepared wound and are intended to support the wound bed and the body’s natural tissue regeneration. The treatments can be incorporated into an individualized wound care plan when conventional care has not produced sufficient progress.
Mobile model reduces travel burden
Mobile wound care in Roanoke VA can help patients who have difficulty arranging transportation or traveling regularly to a wound center. The clinical team brings treatment options, including skin substitutions, directly to patients’ homes.
“We’ve seen firsthand how much of a difference it can make when a wound that hasn’t been healing finally starts to respond to treatment,” Kinnison said. “Skin substitutions are one more tool we’re able to bring directly into a patient’s home.”
The practice says skin substitutions may support wounds that have not responded adequately to standard dressing changes and can provide a non-surgical option within a broader wound management plan. Outcomes vary depending on the patient and wound.
Care team works with patients and caregivers
Kinnison said the home-based approach also addresses practical challenges faced by family caregivers.
“A lot of the families we work with are caregivers who are already stretched thin,” she said. “When we can bring an advanced option like this to the bedside, it takes one more logistical burden off their plate.”
Advanced Mobile Wound Solutions is accepting new patients in Roanoke and surrounding communities. The practice works with referring physicians, home health agencies and family caregivers to coordinate evaluations and ongoing treatment.
Patients managing chronic or non-healing wounds in Roanoke can contact the practice to determine whether skin substitutions in Roanoke VA or other mobile wound care services may be appropriate for their individual care plans.
