At-Home Mobile Wound Care Treatment for Traumatic Wounds
Leaving the hospital after a traumatic injury shouldn’t mean facing wound care challenges alone. Studies reveal a concerning gap in patient knowledge – nearly 40% lack proper dressing change instructions, and over half struggle with wound cleaning and dressings.
However, improper wound care can lead to severe complications, with infection rates reaching up to 15%. Preferred Healthcare’s mobile wound care services reduce these risks. Our expert team provides compassionate care directly in your home, bringing you the knowledge and support needed to heal during the treatment period.
In addition to home health, we partner with healthcare facilities to provide mobile wound care at assisted living facilities, hospitals and other healthcare locations. This comprehensive approach means that patients suffering from traumatic wounds can get convenient access to high-quality wound care and treatment wherever they are.
Our mobile wound care service provides the added benefit of receiving personalized attention in a familiar environment. This contributes to reduced stress and faster healing. By following rigorous infection control protocols, our licensed wound care providers maintain the highest standards of care across healthcare settings.

Our mobile wound care team provides ongoing support throughout the healing process. This responsive approach allows for immediate adjustments to be made to treatment plans, and to quickly respond to any concerns or complications that may occur.
Convenience and Accessibility
After a traumatic injury or surgery, traveling to appointments can be challenging. Our mobile services eliminate the transportation hurdles by bringing expert care directly to you.
Patient Empowerment
We educate patients and their families about infected wound management, prevention strategies and self-care techniques. This knowledge encourages patients to take an active role in their healing process.
Cost-Effective Care
Compared to treatment that occurs in the hospital, mobile wound care often results in significant cost savings. By reducing the need for ER visits and hospital admissions (and lowering transportation expenses), patients and healthcare facilities can benefit from lower costs.
Whether visiting patients at home or partnering with healthcare facilities, we ensure the same quality of care for traumatic wounds and injuries.
