VELA Wound Care nurse collaborating with home health partners to coordinate patient care.

Collaboration Is the Secret Weapon in Wound Care

 

Sure thing!

Ever been caught in the healthcare shuffle? It’s like a bad game of telephone. You’ve got one doctor changing your meds, but the primary doc? Clueless. Then the home nurse shows up with a different plan entirely. Frustrating, right?

That’s where VELA comes in. We believe collaboration isn’t optional- it’s essential.

Healing Together: The Wound Care Ecosystem

We’re not here to take over your primary care or home health agency roles. Think of us as the specialists who help them shine.

Home Health Agencies often handle patients’ overall health brilliantly. But when a tricky wound won’t heal, they call in reinforcements. Us.
For Home Health: We step in for advanced treatments, like using special dressings, then hand back the day-to-day care.
For PCPs: We act as your eyes and ears on-site, so you can focus on broader health issues.

We stick to what we know best – Advanced Wound Care so you can do the same.

Ending the Game of Telephone

You know the gripe: “I sent a referral and never heard back.” Not with us. We’re just as focused on swift communication as we are on healing.
The 24-Hour Loop: Our updates don’t vanish. We ensure the care team gets them quickly.
Digital Integration: No sticky notes here. We use secure digital notes so everyone knows the plan.

The One-Sheet Promise

We know doctors are swamped. That’s why we stick to the “One-Sheet Standard.” No fluff, just the essentials.
Current Status: Is the wound getting better or worse?
The Action: What we did (like a dressing change).
The Ask: What we need from you (like approving meds).

By keeping it clear and concise, we make sure things actually get done.

The “Friday Afternoon Save”

Ever worry about the “Friday afternoon crisis”? Picture this: A home nurse spots a worsening wound late on a Friday. Normally, off to the ER they go.

But with VELA:
Contacts us.
We send a specialist or do a quick telehealth check.
We sort out the treatment and coordinate with the PCP.

Result: The patient stays comfy at home. No ER trip.
