Tenet Health Central Coast has opened San Luis Obispo County’s first Wound Care Clinic, which is part of our licensed services at Twin Cities Community Hospital. The clinic provides advanced treatment options for chronic and non-healing wounds.
Diabetes, cancer treatment, immobilization or circulatory problems are just a few ways that people get chronic wounds. Wounds that don’t heal properly can quickly escalate from being a nuisance to a serious health threat.
We treat a wide variety of conditions that include chronic, non-healing wounds often associated with:
Diabetes
Cancer-patient complications from radiation treatments
Wounds due to compromised blood supply
Trauma complications
Pressure sores
We provide:
Treatment education
Complete wound evaluations
Diagnostic testing
Customized treatment plans
Our Clinic location inside the hospital is an important benefit because of the on-site resources, including:
Laboratory and Pathology Department (such as for blood draws)
Imaging services, including ultra-sound and computed tomography (CT)
The caring team at Twin Cities guide you through every step of the healing process. Our physicians use the latest technologies in debridement, infection control, surgical intervention, wound closure devices and treatment.
