Question 1

How does mobile wound care work?

Accepted Answer

ALMS brings hospital-level wound care directly to the patient’s doorstep at home or in a care facility. Here's what you can expect:

Referral or Intake – We accept referrals from providers, facilities or families. We assess the patient's wound care needs and review their medical history.

Initial Visit – A licensed wound care provider visits the patient for a full wound assessment and treatment plan.

Treatment & Monitoring – Using advanced modalities (CAMPs and CPTs), we treat wounds with debridement, biologics, and customized dressings.

Ongoing Care – We return for regular visits, track progress, document healing and communicate with all members of the care team.

There’s no need for transportation, clinic visits or ER trips. We handle everything on-site.
