Facility-Based Care
Facility-Based Wound Care — SNFs and ALFs
Skilled nursing facilities and assisted living facilities routinely care for residents with complex wounds — but maintaining a dedicated wound care team in-house is expensive, hard to staff, and rarely cost-effective for a single facility. AZ Advanced Wound Care provides that expertise on-site. Our clinicians round at your facility on a scheduled cadence, manage complex wounds bedside, and document each visit so your records support clinical handoffs and survey readiness. All care follows protocols set and overseen by our supervising physician.
On-site wound services we deliver
Scheduled wound rounds
Our clinicians visit on a regular cadence — weekly, biweekly, or another schedule that fits census and acuity — to assess wounds, perform debridement and dressing changes, and update care plans.
Bedside wound care for residents
Complex wound management delivered bedside at your facility by clinicians who focus exclusively on wound care.
On-site consults
When a wound is unusual, deteriorating, or requires specialty input, we provide consults that include assessment, recommendations, and documentation.
Care plan development and updates
We develop and update wound-specific care plans aligned with the facility's broader plan of care, including offloading, dressings, debridement schedule, and escalation triggers.
Documentation for survey readiness and clinical handoffs
Wound documentation is one of the most-cited survey areas in long-term care. Every visit produces structured documentation appropriate to the setting, supporting MDS coordination and survey readiness without adding burden to facility staff.
Who we work with
Skilled nursing facilities (SNFs)
On-site wound rounds, complex wound management, support for MDS-coordinated care plans, escalation pathway through our supervising physician.
Assisted living facilities (ALFs)
On-site wound assessments and treatments for residents whose care needs exceed routine.
How a facility engagement works
A facility engagement typically follows four steps:
-
Step 1 · Scope
We meet with your clinical leadership to understand census, common wound types, current documentation flow, and the practical constraints of your facility. We scope the engagement to fit — scheduled rounds, on-call consults, or both.
-
Step 2 · Scheduling
Visits are scheduled on a cadence that fits your patient mix. Our clinicians integrate with your existing clinical workflow rather than working around it.
-
Step 3 · Handoff
Each visit produces structured documentation that your team can use. Findings, treatments, plan updates, and escalation needs are communicated to the facility team.
-
Step 4 · Ongoing
We adjust the cadence and scope as census and acuity change. Complex cases escalate to our supervising physician.
Clinical oversight & escalation
Every clinician on our team works under protocols set by our supervising physician. Complex cases — non-responding wounds, suspected osteomyelitis, deteriorating vascular status, surgical decisions — escalate through a clear pathway that includes the supervising physician and the patient's other providers.
Service area
We round at facilities across the Phoenix East Valley, including Mesa, Tempe, Chandler, Gilbert, Scottsdale, Apache Junction, and Queen Creek.
