WHISKEYTOWN Brandy Creek Beach Luau s ch ed ul ed J un e 18 The Dignity Health Wound Healing and Hy- perbaric Medicine Center at St. Elizabeth Commu- nity Hospital, a member of the Healogics network, is helping raise awareness of chronic wounds. The third annual Wound Care Awareness Week was held June 6-10. One of nearly 800 He- alogics-managed Cen- ters; the local center of- fers advanced therapies to patients suffering from chronic wounds. Program directors across the nation ded- icated the week to ed- ucating physicians, pa- tients and the general public about the chronic wound epidemic and the advanced wound care so- lutions. It is estimated that chronic wounds affect 6.7 million people in the U.S. and the incidence is ris- ing, fueled by an aging population and increas- ing rates of diseases and conditions such as diabe- tes, obesity and the late effects of radiation ther- apy. If left untreated, chronic wounds can lead to diminished quality of life and possibly amputa- tion of the affected limb. People with wounds that have not improved with traditional methods of treatment may bene- fit from a visit to the lo- cal center. Visit www.woundcarea- warenessweek.com to learn more.
