DCS Collaborates with Physicians and Clinical Leaders

Diversified Clinical Services’ Centers are led by physician medical directors and staffed with teams of physicians specially trained in wound care. Our Wound Care Centers have continuous support from Diversified Clinical Services’ Senior Medical Advisors and a national network of trained wound care nurses. We also assist hospitals in educating their physician communities about the need for Specialized Wound Care.

When physicians refer a patient to a Diversified Clinical Services wound care program, the patient meets with the program staff for a consultation, including an examination and medical history evaluation. The physician, along with the wound care team, establishes a treatment plan. Information regarding the patient's progress, along with updated photos of the wound, are submitted to the referring physician on an ongoing basis. The referring physician always remains an active member of the wound care management team and the patient remains under his or her care.

DCS Centers Heal Patients’ Chronic Wounds

An estimated eight million Americans suffer from chronic wounds. Wounds come from a variety of different medical conditions, and they don't heal for many different reasons. Typically, a wound that does not respond to normal medical care within 30 days is considered a problem or chronic wound.

Diabetics may acquire small cuts or sores on their feet or lower extremities that develop into serious wounds. About 20 percent of these wounds become so severe that they result in amputation. Vascular disorders may result in chronic venous stasis ulcers, and conditions that cause immobility may result in severe, hard-to heal pressure ulcers. Because every patient’s wound is unique, each will have a thorough diagnostic exam to identify the patient’s type of wound and its underlying causes. A program specifically tailored to the patient needs and based on the most effective treatment options will begin. Diversified Clinical Services’ Wound Care Centers heal nearly 90 percent of their patients’ chronic wounds.
