The American Wound Care Foundation

stethoscopeThe American Wound Care Foundation is committed to educating the professional community and the public on the treatment and prevention of non-healing wounds requiring aggressive intervention.  Individuals with non-healing wounds must be aware that they are at risk of limb loss, major infection and possible death. This Foundation educates the public so they are aware of risk factors and how and where to seek appropriate treatment.  The American Wound Care Foundation has the goal of providing funding for professional  services and supplies for those not able to obtain them on their own, whether due to financial or other special circumstances. 

This will be accomplished by:

  • Developing  information in plain language for the general public.
  • Conducting public seminars regarding non-healing skin wounds.  
  • Presenting programs for print and electronic media so the public can make informed decisions regarding wound care.
  • Assisting patients with limited income for non-covered services/supplies is an eventual goal

The American Wound Care Foundation communicates to interested parties across the medical and patient community.   As we continue to grow, stay in touch with our activities through our mailing list.
