Wound Dressing Change at Home in Pomona, CA

Wound Care at Your Pomona Door – Step by Step

Pomona is a city with deep roots – Cal Poly Pomona, the Fairplex, historic downtown on Second Street, and diverse residential neighborhoods where families have built lives for generations. It sits at the eastern edge of LA County, which means the nearest specialized wound care clinics may be a long drive on the 10 or 71 Freeway. When a wound needs professional dressing changes after surgery or because of a condition like diabetes, that drive three or four times a week is a real hardship. HarvardCare solves it by bringing licensed wound care nurses directly to your Pomona home.

What Happens at Each Visit

Here’s exactly what to expect when your HarvardCare nurse arrives for a wound dressing change at your Pomona home. She arrives with all sterile supplies – you don’t need to buy anything. She washes her hands, puts on sterile gloves, and carefully removes the existing dressing. She cleans the wound with the appropriate solution, examines the wound bed for healing progress and any signs of concern, measures the wound for documentation, applies the new dressing per your surgeon’s orders, and records everything in your chart. If she notices anything unusual – redness, drainage, odor – she contacts your physician that same day. The entire process takes about 30–45 minutes.

Who This Serves in Pomona

Pomona residents come to us for wound dressing changes in several common situations. Patients recovering from surgery – joint replacements, abdominal procedures, cardiac surgery – who need careful incision management. People living with diabetes whose wounds require specialized diabetic wound protocols. Seniors with limited mobility who have developed pressure injuries from extended bed rest. Family caregivers managing a loved one’s chronic wound who need professional support. And patients with wound VAC systems that require trained hands for dressing changes.

All care follows physician orders and is delivered by licensed clinicians with documented visit reports shared with your medical team.
