Start with the whole picture
The clinician reviews the wound, current treatment, medical history and the practical support available to the patient. Circulation, pressure, mobility and other health needs may all affect the care plan.
Work alongside existing clinicians
Gateway communicates with the treating physician, relevant specialists, home health and facility nurses as appropriate. Changes in the wound or medical condition may call for another clinician or a different level of care.
Plan for each transition
Hospital discharge, a move to rehabilitation or the return home can change how care is delivered. Gateway works with discharge planners and care teams to review wound-care needs and arrange suitable follow-up.
