Lake Granbury Medical Center Wound Care Center receives prestigious dual Awards for Excellence

Posted

The Wound Center at Lake Granbury Medical Center has achieved an exceptional feat, earning dual Center of Excellence Awards. This recognition includes the prestigious Clinical Distinction Award and the Excellence in Patient Satisfaction Award, which highlight the center’s exceptional performance in wound care.

The Clinical Distinction Award honors centers that consistently exceed national healing benchmarks, while the Excellence in Patient Satisfaction Award is given to those achieving a national patient satisfaction benchmark of 96%. These awards reflect the center’s outstanding clinical outcomes, operational efficiency and patient satisfaction.

Brandy Montgomery, program director, expressed her pride: “Our team’s unwavering dedication to providing top-notch wound care truly sets our center apart. Receiving these awards reaffirms our commitment to enhancing patient well-being and maintaining the highest standards of practice.”

Adding to this remarkable achievement, the Wound Center was also named a “Wound Center of Excellence” earlier this year by RestorixHealth. This honor, awarded for the period of July-December 2023, is a distinction earned by fewer than 10% of wound care centers nationwide. It underscores the center’s success meeting rigorous clinical, operational and patient satisfaction benchmarks.

Specializing in the management of chronic, nonhealing wounds caused by conditions such as diabetes, poor circulation, burns and other injuries, the Wound Center employs a comprehensive and personalized approach to care. Commonly treated conditions include arterial wounds, burns, diabetic ulcers, edema, insect bites, pressure ulcers, surgical wounds, trauma wounds and venous ulcers.

If you have a wound that has not healed in 30 days or a sore with increasing pain, redness, swelling, change of color or foul odor, it is essential to seek specialized care. The center offers advanced treatments such as noninvasive studies, debridement (removal of dead or damaged tissue), advanced wound dressings, bioengineered tissue (grafts), multi-layer compression wraps for swelling, total contact casting (special casts used for offloading) and vacuum-assisted closure (a procedure to drain a wound, prevent infection and speed healing).

The dedicated team at Lake Granbury Medical Center provides thorough evaluations and personalized treatment plans, ensuring that each patient receives comprehensive care and ongoing education throughout their healing journey. The Wound Center is located at:
