Board-certified NPs manage complex chronic wounds in homes, assisted living facilities, skilled nursing facilities, and memory care communities throughout the KC metro.
Wagner-scale DFU assessment, sharp debridement, offloading guidance, wound vac initiation, infection coordination. One of the most common and highest-risk wound types in the KC metro.
Full DFU information →NPIAP staging (Stage 1–4, unstageable, deep tissue injury), offloading plans, advanced dressings, NPWT for deep wounds. Commonly seen in ALFs, SNFs, and memory care facilities throughout KC.
Full pressure ulcer information →Multi-layer compression therapy, wound bed preparation, and advanced dressings for high-exudate venous wounds. Compression coordination with the patient's vascular care team when needed throughout the KC metro.
Full venous ulcer information →Negative pressure wound therapy at home — NP-led setup, dressing changes every 48–72 hours, Medicare LCD documentation, and supplier coordination for complex non-healing wounds.
Full NPWT information →Post-operative wound breakdown managed at home — sharp debridement, NPWT, advanced moist wound care. Direct communication with the operating surgeon on every case.
Refer a patient →Complex lacerations, avulsions, and soft tissue injuries requiring ongoing wound management after initial ER or urgent care treatment. Wound bed preparation for primary or secondary closure.
Refer a patient →Wounds with arterial or mixed arterial-venous etiology managed in close coordination with vascular surgery. We assess ABI indicators at bedside and facilitate urgent vascular referrals when critical limb ischemia is suspected.
