What is Wound Healing Awareness Month?

Wound Healing Awareness Month recognizes the impact of chronic wounds on patients and the healthcare system. It happens in June and is also a time to celebrate the healthcare professionals who care for these complex cases. Chronic wounds affect more than 6.5 million people in the United States. Many are elderly or living in long-term care settings. Without proper treatment, these wounds can lead to infections, hospitalizations, and even limb loss or death.

Our commitment to evidence-based care and elevating the standard of wound management in nursing facilities. Our provider team brings wound care directly at bedside. This offers a comprehensive, individualized approach that helps patients heal faster and more effectively.

Our Protocols

The Novikov Modern Wound Care Protocol™ for Nursing Facilities is a systematized approach that includes accurate wound diagnosis, targeted treatment strategies, debridement when appropriate, and close monitoring. We work in collaboration with facility nurses and medical teams to ensure our treatment plans are integrated and responsive. Our protocol also emphasizes patient comfort, infection control, and prevention of recurrence.

  • Heals wounds up to 50% faster – less pain and quicker recovery for facility residents
  • Reduces nursing hours and wound dressing costs, saving your facility up to $100,000 annually.
  • Improves Medicare ratings and enhances the reputation of the facility, driving higher occupancy and referring hospital connections

Mission alignment

Wound Healing Awareness Month aligns with our mission to deliver expert, timely care in the environments where our patients live. Our expertise, compassionate care and proven methods translates into better healing outcomes, reduced hospitalizations, and improved quality of life.

This month, we recognize the challenges of chronic wounds and celebrate the skilled professionals who play a critical role in healing. Dr. Novikov Wellness and Skin Care is proud to be part of that story. Every wound we heal is a step toward restoring health, dignity, and independence for the patients we serve.
