Specialist-level wound care delivered directly to your home, assisted living community, or skilled nursing facility in Florissant — no transportation required, no long clinic waits.
Florissant is one of the largest cities in St. Louis County and a cornerstone of North County's senior care landscape. With a substantial older adult population spread across zip codes 63031, 63033, and 63034, neighborhoods like Old Town Florissant, Paddock Hills, Old Jamestown, and North Pointe are home to many residents managing chronic wounds — including diabetic foot ulcers, pressure injuries, and post-surgical sites — who need timely, expert care without leaving their community.
Gateway Wound Care sends board-certified nurse practitioners directly to patients throughout Florissant's North County zip codes. Whether you're recovering at home after a hospital discharge, residing at an assisted living community along Highway 67, or managing a wound complicated by diabetes or vascular disease, our NPs bring the same specialist-level evaluation and treatment you'd receive in a clinical setting — without the trip.
We coordinate closely with referring physicians, discharge planners, and care coordinators at SSM Health DePaul Hospital in adjacent Bridgeton, Christian Hospital in Northeast St. Louis, and Mercy Hospital North to ensure seamless continuity of care from hospital to home for Florissant-area patients.
Patients with mobility limitations, post-surgical restrictions, or complex wounds don't have to arrange rides to a clinic. We come to you — at home, at your assisted living community, or at the facility.
Our nurse practitioners are trained in advanced wound management — including debridement, NPWT (wound vac), and compression therapy. You receive the same level of care as an outpatient wound center, delivered in your own environment.
We work with Medicare, Medicaid, and most major commercial insurance plans. Our team handles benefit verification before your first visit so there are no billing surprises.
Chronic wounds worsen quickly. When a referral or request comes in, we prioritize scheduling an initial visit within 24 to 48 hours. For discharge planners, that kind of response time matters.
We provide mobile wound care to patients throughout Florissant's residential neighborhoods and senior care communities, including assisted living facilities, skilled nursing centers, and private homes across zip codes 63031, 63033, and 63034.
We also serve patients recovering at home in Florissant's neighborhoods — including Old Town Florissant, Paddock Hills, Old Jamestown, and North Pointe. Nearby hospitals with which we coordinate include SSM Health DePaul Hospital (Bridgeton, adjacent), Christian Hospital (Northeast St. Louis), and Mercy Hospital North.
