Wound Ostomy Clinic

The Wound Ostomy Clinic (W.O.C.) at Columbus Community Hospital offers effective treatments that can help you manage wound or ostomy issues and more fully enjoy life.

Wound care services 

The Wound Ostomy Clinic offers a comprehensive approach to treatment, and our team of physicians and certified wound, ostomy and continence nurses (CWOCNs) design treatment plans to meet patients’ individual needs.

You may benefit from the center if you have:

• Nonhealing wounds that linger for four to six weeks without improvement, including diabetic ulcers, venous leg ulcers, pressure ulcers (bed sores), or surgical wounds that fail to heal.
• Problems managing an ostomy, whether it is inadequate wear time of the ostomy appliance (wafer/bag) or skin complications around or near the stoma.

The professionals at the W.O.C. also keep patients’ primary care physicians informed and involved in patients’ treatment and recovery processes.
