What to Expect
All OSF Wound Care Clinic patients receive an initial screening, where we will take your history, and your wounds will be measured, cleaned and assessed.
We will ask for your written consent to take pictures of the wound(s) and for debridement, biopsy, incision and drainage, laceration management, or other procedures if needed.
Often, you, your significant other and your other health care providers may be included in the process.
Once we've finished the initial screening, your wound care provider will review the findings and share treatment options with you.
