Traumatic Wounds
What Are Traumatic Wounds?
Traumatic wounds result from accidents, falls or injuries such as cuts, tears or punctures. They often occur suddenly and require immediate care.
In facilities, falls and injuries are a leading source of traumatic wounds and liability risks. At home, caregivers often struggle to manage large or complex injuries without help.
Why Treatment Matters
Without prompt care, traumatic wounds can cause:
-
Excessive bleeding or infection
-
Scarring or long-term mobility issues
-
ER visits and readmissions
