Collaborative wound care partnership for home health patients requiring advanced specialist expertise beyond general nursing care.
Home health nurses provide excellent general care, but complex wounds often require specialist intervention. Healix360 partners with home health agencies to provide expert wound care consultation and treatment for patients with non-healing wounds, infected ulcers, or wounds requiring advanced therapies like debridement, negative pressure therapy, or biologic grafts. We work collaboratively with your nursing team, complementing—not replacing—your care while ensuring optimal outcomes and Medicare compliance.
Wounds showing no improvement after 4 weeks of standard care, wounds enlarging despite appropriate treatment, or wounds developing new areas of necrosis or breakdown. These require specialist evaluation to identify underlying barriers to healing and implement advanced interventions.
Signs of infection (purulent drainage, increasing pain, erythema, odor), suspected osteomyelitis (exposed bone, probe-to-bone positive), or wounds not responding to antibiotic therapy. Specialists can perform cultures, aggressive debridement, and coordinate with physicians for appropriate antimicrobial management.
Significant necrotic tissue, eschar, or slough that requires sharp/surgical debridement beyond the scope of home health nursing practice. Our specialists perform bedside debridement in the patient's home with proper anesthesia and equipment.
Wounds that may benefit from negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT), cellular/tissue-based products (amniotic grafts, bioengineered skin), or other advanced modalities requiring specialist evaluation, ordering, and application. We handle all Medicare authorization and documentation.
During routine visit, nurse recognizes wound requires specialist intervention. Nurse contacts Healix360 via phone, fax, or secure portal with patient information and wound description.
We contact patient's physician for orders (or coordinate with home health to obtain orders), verify insurance coverage, and schedule visit within 24-48 hours. We communicate visit time to home health team.
Our specialist visits patient at home, performs comprehensive assessment and treatment (debridement, advanced dressing application, etc.). Home health nurse can coordinate to be present if desired for continuity.
We send detailed visit notes to home health within 24 hours with treatment plan, recommendations for dressing changes between specialist visits, and schedule for follow-up. Home health team continues general care per updated plan.
Open lines of communication maintained. Home health nurses can reach our team anytime with questions or concerns. We coordinate care plan changes with home health to ensure seamless patient experience.
