Chronic wounds don’t just affect the body – they affect mental health, social isolation, and overall quality of life. When healing isn't the goal, compassionate care becomes even more critical.

Our NEW educational video on Palliative Wound Care presented by Arthur Evensen, DPM, CWSP, DABPM explores how to provide whole-person care for patients with chronic wounds that will not heal—focusing on comfort, dignity, and emotional support.
