For most people, cuts and scratches heal within days or weeks. But for those whose natural healing process is hampered, a simple sore can become a complex medical problem requiring specialized care.
Nationally, approximately eight million people suffer from chronic, non-healing wounds—a serious disorder that can lead to amputation of limbs and dramatically impaired quality of life.
At the Wound Care Center at Halifax Regional, we are proud of our 95% healing rate. Most of our patients’ wounds are healed within 25 days of beginning treatment. We are here to provide patients with an individualized, comprehensive plan of care that brings you the most appropriate and effective wound care treatments for your particular needs. |
