Ambulatory Care Center

The Wound Healing Center

  • Diabetic ulcers
  • Pressure sores
  • Venous stasis ulcers
  • Non-healing surgical wounds
  • Radiation injury wounds
  • Wounds complicated by infections
  • Crush injury
  • Burns

  • Skin tears

The Wound Healing Center’s on-site diagnostic lab and diagnostic radiology services assist in identifying the reasons behind healing impairment. A skilled team of wound care nurses and physicians provide outpatient management and treatment of problem wounds. Some patients benefit from hyperbaric oxygen therapy, which involves breathing 100% oxygen while the body is under greater than normal atmospheric pressure. Hyperbaric oxygen is a non-invasive therapy and is delivered inside a comfortable see-through chamber. The chamber is gently pressurized while a specially trained technician monitors the patient. Peterson’s Wound Healing Center offers you the most advanced therapies available. Our patients experience fewer re-hospitalizations, a reduced likelihood of prolonged or permanent disabilities and an improved quality of life.

What patients say about Peterson Health

When I called 911 that evening, I honestly prepared myself to not see my dad alive again after that due to how quickly and severely he had fallen sick. After his negative COVID results came back, I walked into his ER room about 30 minutes after we arrived and he was alert (he was even smiling!) and receiving the necessary medications and treatments to help him. Immediately, everyone began helping him as a TEAM between each department quickly and efficiently to ensure my dad was taken care of and comfortable. It's almost like they were Angels bringing him back to me! I knew he was in the very BEST hands! My dad hasn't stopped talking about how greatly his opinion of Peterson hospital has changed after the phenomenal care he's received over the past couple of days. He said everyone is being so helpful and caring, thoughtful, and shows its a TEAM effort! He has so much more respect for PRMC and the staff and is so appreciative of everyone. He didn't stop bragging on how helpful and nice everyone has been to him and our family.
