Care for diabetic feet includes regular assessment and treatment aimed at protecting circulation and skin integrity, alongside the centre's broader diabetes and lifestyle management.
Diabetes can affect circulation, sensation and the body’s ability to heal, making even minor foot problems important to address promptly. Our approach focuses on careful assessment, appropriate wound management and regular monitoring based on the condition of each patient.
Clinical Wound Assessment
Wounds that remain open or heal slowly require careful evaluation. Our medical team assesses the wound and surrounding tissue to understand its condition and determine an appropriate treatment approach. The care plan can be adapted as healing progresses.
Diabetic Foot Monitoring
Regular foot assessment is particularly important for people living with diabetes. Care focuses on identifying changes in the skin, pressure areas, wounds and other concerns at an early stage, helping patients take appropriate action before problems become more serious.
Supporting the Healing Process
Wound care is supported by attention to factors that can influence recovery, including blood sugar management, nutrition, circulation and general health. Where appropriate, these aspects are considered alongside wound treatment as part of the patient’s overall care.
Prevention & Foot Care Guidance
Patients may also receive practical guidance on protecting their feet and recognising early warning signs that require medical attention. Proper foot care, suitable footwear, hygiene and regular observation can play an important role in reducing avoidable complications.
Coordinated Medical Care
For patients with more complex wounds or underlying health concerns, wound care can be coordinated with the centre’s wider medical services. This allows relevant health factors to be considered together rather than treating the wound as an isolated problem.
