Mobile Wound Care Across Jefferson County, Missouri

Jefferson County stretches south of the St. Louis metro along the Mississippi and Meramec Rivers and is predominantly suburban-to-rural. For many Jefferson County residents, the nearest outpatient wound clinic is a significant drive — and for patients with chronic wounds, diabetes, or limited mobility, that drive often doesn’t happen at the frequency good wound care requires.

Gateway Wound Care travels to patients across Jefferson County, bringing specialty wound care into the home. Our nurse practitioners manage diabetic foot ulcers, venous leg ulcers, pressure injuries, post-surgical wounds, and complex wounds requiring wound vac therapy — all at bedside, without transportation barriers.

We coordinate with Jefferson County’s primary care offices, home-health agencies, and facility partners. Every visit is photo-documented and updates are sent directly to the referring or primary care physician.

Facilities

SNF, ALF & Home-Health Partnerships in Jefferson County

Jefferson County is home to multiple assisted living communities, rural skilled nursing facilities, and long-term care residences. Gateway Wound Care partners with these facilities to bring NP-level wound care on-site — so residents don’t have to be transported for wound assessments, debridement, or NPWT management.

Our nurse practitioners work as an extension of your nursing staff — performing wound assessments, bedside debridement, NPWT management, and post-surgical wound care. All visits are documented with photos and shared with the facility record and referring physician.
