چکیده
A brief description of the Wound Recovery and Hyperbaric Medicine Center, now in its second decade of service, will inform the general medical community of this valuable asset. Demand for wound care services is predicted to grow steadily over the next several decades. Kent Hospital's vision for wound care is embodied in its thriving Wound Recovery and Hyperbaric Medicine Center. New cost- effective wound healing therapies must be developed and evidence-based practices established. New physicians and support staff must be trained. Only through a blending of high quality clinical care with research and education will these objectives be achieved and future successes in the management of patients and their wounds be made possible.
