The ACH Wound Care Advantage™ is an outpatient clinic treating non-healing wounds and offering a multidisciplinary approach to healing that includes hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT).
Wound care refers to treatment of chronic or non-healing wounds that can be associated with infection, diabetes, radiation, arterial or venous disease and post surgical sites.
