Because diabetes and other illnesses can compromise the strength of an elderly individual’s skin, wound care is an essential part of the duties of our staff. As a result of older skin’s slower healing rate, elderly wound care is often considered in the context of treating chronic wounds and ensuring that they do not get any worse. Instead of aiming for the complete eradication of a chronic injury, a health professional may opt for an approach that focuses on managing a chronic wound and keeping overall damage to a minimum.
