At Coast Plaza Hospital, we treat the person, not just the wound. There are many underlying issues that can keep a wound from healing, such as nutritional deficiencies, circulatory problems, and disease-related complications. Paraplegics, quadriplegics, bedridden patients, and patients with diabetes are prone to non-healing wounds because they are at a higher risk for developing blood clots, narrowed blood vessels or fluid accumulation in the legs.

Coast Plaza team has found that major complications such as amputation and deadly infections can often be prevented by aggressive treatment from specialists who are trained in the management of these non-healing wounds. With this in mind, our Wound Care Program incorporates a wide variety of field experts trained in advanced technologies, including:

• Specialized Wound Care Physicians and Nurses
• Board Certified Plastic, General and Vascular Surgeons
• Board Certified Endocrinologists
• Podiatrists
• Nutritionists
• Physical Therapists
• Radiology
• State-of-the-Art Surgical Intervention
• Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT)
• The latest Pharmaceutical Agents including Growth Hormones
• Laboratory and Diagnostic Services including Non-Invasive Vascular Studies
• Extensive Hospital Services

Our comprehensive program addresses the needs of the entire body in an effort to reduce healing time for patients whose wounds have previously resisted treatment. If you have questions or concerns about therapies and services offered, please contact the Wound Care Program at (562) 868-3751, extension 2071.
