Wound Dressing Change at Home in Westwood, CA

Wound Care Minutes From UCLA – Delivered to Your Westwood Home

Westwood is defined by UCLA – the campus, the medical center, the Westwood Village shops, and the residential neighborhoods of condos, apartments, and single-family homes that surround one of the world’s great universities. UCLA Medical Center is literally in the neighborhood, but even a short trip to an outpatient wound care clinic from Westwood means traffic on Wilshire, parking challenges, and waiting room time. When a wound requires dressing changes three or more times per week, HarvardCare brings licensed wound care nurses to your Westwood home – the same caliber of clinical care, without leaving your front door.

UCLA-Caliber Care at Home

Many of our Westwood patients receive their surgical care at UCLA Medical Center. Our wound care nurses are experienced in following UCLA’s wound care protocols precisely. Every wound dressing change at your Westwood home includes proper sterile technique, wound bed assessment, infection screening, measurement documentation, and a progress report to your surgeon. The communication between our nurses and your UCLA physicians is thorough and ongoing.
