Traumatic Wounds & Skin Tears
A skin tear from a fall or a laceration that won't close can spiral into a chronic wound, especially in older adults with thin, fragile skin or in anyone taking blood thinners. Apollo Wound Care treats traumatic wounds in the home promptly — thorough cleansing, closure strategies appropriate for fragile skin, tetanus review and follow-up until the wound is fully healed, not just covered.
