Specialist-level wound care delivered directly to your home, assisted living community, or skilled nursing facility in Lee's Summit — no transportation required, no long clinic waits.
Lee's Summit is one of the fastest-growing cities in the Kansas City metro — and home to one of the region's most substantial senior care ecosystems. John Knox Village, one of the largest continuing care retirement communities in the Midwest, anchors a broad network of ALFs, SNFs, and home health services in the 64063, 64064, 64081, 64082, and 64086 zip codes. For the thousands of older adults living in neighborhoods like Longview, Paragon Star, and New Longview, access to quality wound care at home can be the difference between healing and hospitalization.
Gateway Wound Care — Kansas City sends board-certified nurse practitioners directly to patients throughout Lee's Summit. Whether you're recovering at home after a discharge from Saint Luke's East Hospital or Truman Medical Center Lakewood, residing at a CCRC on Colbern Road, or managing a diabetic foot wound complicated by neuropathy, our NPs bring the same specialist-level assessment and treatment you'd receive in a clinical wound center — without the trip.
We coordinate with referring physicians, discharge planners, and care coordinators at Saint Luke's East Hospital and other Lee's Summit area facilities to ensure continuity of care from hospital to home.
