Documentation

At NESWC our documentation has always met and exceeded the CMS guidelines for clinical wound care and is timely and accurate. Your facility will receive three different reports through our web based system. The first report provides an executive summary for the Administrator or Director of Nursing. The second report provides a comprehensive clinical progress note which includes detailed wound data, treatments and plan of care interventions. The last report is an individual resident’s MDS 3.0 Section M. All of these reports may be accessed by Internet Explorer or Safari. The facilities are provided “portal access” to obtain the records with requisite training on the system. Our documentation system is HIPAA compliant.

Research

Clinical trials are the mainstay of evidence-based medicine. For years, Northeast Surgical Wound Care has worked with numerous medical companies to provide clinical research study opportunities for our patients. Our studies have included wound care devices, nutritional supplements and other wound care products.
