Do you have a wound that just won't heal?

Since 1998, Beebe Medical Center's Wound Care Services Department has provided state of the art wound care for our community. Beebe Medical Center's Wound Care Services Department offers interdisciplinary and comprehensive wound care treatment. We work together with your physician to provide the best possible care for you and your loved ones.   

Our outcomes driven program focuses on healing your wound(s) quickly. As compared nationally to other wound centers, our 2009 healing rate is 94.4%. Many of these wounds went untreated for weeks or months before receiving specialized wound care.

The types of wounds that can benefit from our Wound Care Services
Program include:

• Non healing surgical wounds
• Traumatic wounds
• Venous Stasis Ulcers
• Pressure Ulcers
• Minor burns
• Wounds caused by poor circulation
• Diabetic foot ulcers

Additional services include care and education of individuals who will undergo, or have had ostomy surgery.

If you have a wound that has not responded to treatment for 4 weeks or is not completely healed after 8 weeks, talk with your physician or call the Beebe Medical Center's Wound Care Services Department. Most insurance plans cover wound care treatment. We will help you determine what your insurance plan covers.

We provide instructions for care of your wound and communicate with other members of your health care team.

Please bring your medical records, a list of all medications you are taking, list of allergies, and your insurance card. The first visit is the longest. We will schedule follow up appointments as required to achieve wound healing.
