Wound Care

 At PRN Community Nursing and Care, we provide comprehensive wound care services designed to promote healing, prevent complications, and improve comfort and quality of life. Our experienced nurses specialise in managing a wide range of wounds — from simple acute injuries to complex or chronic wounds that require ongoing, specialised attention.

Assessment

We conduct thorough wound assessments to evaluate size, depth, condition, and any signs of infection or deterioration. This ensures each client receives a personalised treatment plan tailored to their specific needs.

Dressing Selection and Change

Choosing the right dressing is crucial for optimal healing. Our nurses are skilled in selecting appropriate advanced dressings and performing dressing changes with care and precision, always prioritising client comfort and best-practice wound management.

Negative Pressure Wound Therapy (NPWT) and Complex Wound Care

For more complex wounds, we provide advanced treatments including Negative Pressure Wound Therapy (NPWT). This evidence-based approach supports faster healing and reduces the risk of infection in difficult or non-healing wounds.

Infection and Deterioration Identification & Treatment

Early identification of infection or deterioration is vital to avoid serious complications. Our nurses monitor wounds closely, detect early warning signs, and implement appropriate interventions or escalate care when needed.
