Wound Dressing

Our community health nurses are well-versed in wound care management and provide expert wound dressing services to promote healing and prevent infections. Our nurses will assess, clean, and dress surgical wounds, pressure ulcers, and other types of wounds with precision and care. We prioritise patient safety and comfort by utilising antiseptic techniques and innovative wound care products to optimise healing.

Bowel Cares

Our community health nurses are trained in bowel care and provide patients with bowel management requirements with sensitive and respectful assistance. We recognise the significance of maintaining gastrointestinal health and offer individualised care plans tailored to the needs of each patient. During bowel cares, our nurses prioritise patient comfort and endeavour to maintain a hygienic and supportive environment.

Medication Assistance

Our community health nurses at Pender Health are qualified to provide medication assistance, ensuring that patients receive their medications on time and as prescribed. We strictly adhere to medication protocols, closely monitoring dosages and interactions. Our nurses are proficient in the administration of medications, including injections and complex medication regimens.

Brace Cares

Our community health nurses have extensive experience caring for patients who don braces or orthotic devices. We provide support, education, and assistance with the appropriate use and maintenance of orthotic devices, ensuring that patients receive the greatest possible benefit from their orthotic devices.

Negative Pressure Dressings

For patients with chronic or complex wounds, our community health nurses are proficient in applying negative pressure dressings. These advanced dressings aid in wound healing by promoting blood flow, reducing swelling, and facilitating tissue repair. Our nurses carefully assess and monitor the effectiveness of negative pressure dressings to achieve optimal outcomes for our patients.

Compressions

Our community health nurses are trained to administer compression therapy to treat lymphedema and venous insufficiency, among other conditions. With our knowledge of compression garments and bandages, we assist patients in reducing edoema, enhancing blood circulation, and avoiding complications.

Palliative Care Visits

We offer compassionate and supportive palliative care visits to patients with terminal illnesses. Our community health nurses prioritise relieving pain and distress, enhancing patient comfort, and providing emotional support to patients and their families during this difficult time. We collaborate closely with other healthcare professionals to ensure that palliative care patients receive seamless and comprehensive care.
