Wound Care Specialists
Serving clients in Nassau County and the 5 Boroughs: Brooklyn, Queens, Manhattan, Bronx and Staten Island
As a board certified wound care specialist consultant, I see patients through referrals from MD’s, home care agencies, insurance companies, and personal client referrals. Our patients are primarily elderly, but do not have to be for this service.
A full patient assessment is completed, wounds are assessed for etiology, prevention, risk factors, treatment options, nutrition, durable medical equipment needs, and any additional care needs.
Recommendations for treatment and care will be discussed with the clients or family and prescribing physician. A comprehensive report is available, upon request, to be sent to your physician. I am board certified by WOCN, ABWM, and NAWC. Certification affirms advanced knowledge, skill, and practice to meet the challenges of modern nursing.
PRI (Patient Review Instrument) and Screen in New York State is for Skilled Nursing Home Placement. The PRI is a clinical tool that helps to determine how much assistance your loved one will need in the skilled nursing facility.

A complete home care assessment is an essential step when coordinating care for an elderly loved one so that we can create a care plan that addresses those needs, and helps to keep them as safe as possible.
