What is Mobile Wound Care?

At Salerno Wellness, we understand that managing a chronic wound is difficult. The challenges of travel, mobility limitations, and coordinating appointments can add stress to an already trying situation. Our mission is to remove these barriers by bringing specialized medical care directly to you. Everyone deserves access to high-quality treatment that is both convenient and effective.

Our Mobile Wound Care program was founded on a simple principle: patient well-being comes first. We bring a fully equipped, expert medical team to your environment, whether it's a private residence, an assisted living community, or a nursing home. This approach helps reduce the risk of complications associated with travel and hospital visits, promotes faster healing, and allows you to recover in a familiar, comfortable setting. We are dedicated to providing care that not only heals wounds but also restores dignity and improves your overall quality of life.

Our team of board-certified physicians and practitioners delivers care in the comfort and safety of your home, senior community, or healthcare facility. This approach ensures continuity, convenience, and better healing outcomes for those who need it most.

• Expert Medical Team - Our providers are experienced in complex wound management and advanced therapies. The team includes board-certified physicians and advanced practitioners who have dedicated their careers to understanding the science of healing. They stay current with the latest evidence-based treatments to ensure you receive the most effective care available.

• Unmatched Convenience - There is no need for complicated or painful trips to a hospital or wound care center. Our care is delivered directly to you, eliminating the logistical challenges of transportation and long wait times. This service is especially beneficial for patients with limited mobility, chronic conditions, or those recovering from surgery.



• Seamless Continuity of Care - We function as a vital part of your total healthcare team. We collaborate closely with your primary care providers, specialists, and facility staff to ensure your wound care plan is perfectly integrated with your overall health management. This collaborative approach ensures everyone is aligned, leading to better, more cohesive outcomes.

• A Patient-Centered Approach - Your health, comfort, and personal goals are at the heart of everything we do. We are focused on healing, preventing complications, and educating you and your caregivers. We take the time to listen to your concerns, answer your questions, and develop a personalized care plan that respects your individual needs and preferences.

What We Treat: A Comprehensive Scope of Care

Our clinical team is equipped to manage a wide variety of acute and chronic wounds. We specialize in treating conditions that are often difficult to heal without expert intervention. Our services cover:

• Diabetic ulcers
• Pressure injuries (bedsores)
• Venous & arterial ulcers
• Surgical & traumatic wounds
• Infected or slow-healing wounds
• Skin tears and graft management

Advanced Treatments to Promote Healing

We use state-of-the-art therapies and techniques to create an optimal healing environment. Your personalized care plan may include one or more of the following advanced treatments:

• Debridement - This is the medical removal of unhealthy, dead, or infected tissue from a wound to promote the growth of healthy tissue. Our practitioners perform this essential procedure safely at the bedside to help kickstart the healing process.

• Compression Therapy - For patients with venous ulcers caused by poor circulation, we use specialized multi-layer compression wraps. This therapy helps improve blood flow, reduce swelling, and support the healing of lower leg wounds.

• Topical and Biologic Dressings - We utilize a wide range of advanced wound dressings, including antimicrobial agents, collagen, and skin substitutes. These modern materials are designed to manage moisture, protect the wound from infection, and encourage the body's natural healing mechanisms.

• Negative Pressure Wound Therapy (NPWT) — also known as a "wound vac" — uses a sealed dressing connected to a gentle vacuum pump. NPWT helps draw fluid away from the wound, reduce swelling, and stimulate the growth of new tissue in complex or slow-healing wounds.

• Infection Management - Our team is skilled at identifying and managing wound infections. We can obtain cultures at the bedside and work with your primary physician to ensure the appropriate antibiotic therapy is prescribed, helping to prevent more serious complications.



• Preventive Education - A key part of our service is empowering you and your caregivers with knowledge. We provide education on proper wound care, nutrition for healing, offloading techniques to reduce pressure, and recognizing early signs of complications to help prevent future wounds.
