Negative pressure wound therapy works — if it runs continuously and the dressing is changed properly. We run the setup, change the dressings, troubleshoot alarms at 9 p.m., and coordinate with your DME company so the therapy actually works.
Humidity and skin oils make seals fail fast in South Florida. Our technique is built for it — with skin prep and drape overlap that actually lasts.
Leak, blockage, canister full — we know the common failure modes and we teach the family to handle the easy ones between visits.

Call our on-call line. Most alarms — seal leaks, canister full — are teachable fixes we'll walk you through. If it needs an in-person visit, we come out.
