The Wound Care Clinic Philosophy

Our services are intended to drive improvement in the way in which leg ulcer services deliver care to the patient.  It should foster continued quality improvement and we deliver clear and formal accountability processes and structures to ensure a safe, effective and integrated continuity of clinical care for all patient.

A few patients with uncomplicated leg ulcer may be treated in hospital if they are admitted with co-existing medical problems.  A better patient outcome is achieved in the clinical setting, but in Ghana this is not always possible as patients remain at home with their ulcers until it gets out of hand due to poverty and lack of facilities.  This is where Sure Wound Care is the leader in this field.
