Keep the patient relationship connected
Refer patients who need additional wound assessment, treatment or follow-up at home or in a facility. Gateway works alongside primary care, podiatry, vascular medicine, surgery and other treating clinicians.
When a referral may help
- A chronic wound that is not progressing with the current plan
- A patient who needs wound follow-up after surgery or hospital discharge
- A diabetic foot ulcer, pressure injury, venous ulcer or other complex wound
- Mobility or transportation barriers that make consistent follow-up difficult
Communication around the care plan
Clinical findings, treatment plans and changes that need specialist attention are coordinated with the clinicians involved. Gateway’s primary-care support addresses medical needs affecting recovery while keeping the patient’s broader care connected.
