Discharge planners, case managers & social workers
Wound follow-up, arranged before the patient leaves.
Post-discharge wound care at home or in a facility, coordinated with the patient’s clinicians and the receiving care team.
Contact our team for current visit availability.
Carry the discharge plan forward.
Gateway coordinates wound-care follow-up and communication with the patient’s physicians, surgeons, facility teams and home health, as the plan requires.
We tell you which records and orders are needed, how to send them securely, and whether the visit can be arranged for the patient’s location.
What helps us review a referral.
- Discharge destination, city or ZIP, and expected discharge date
- A direct contact for the social worker, discharge planner or case manager
- Current wound orders and discharge summary, sent through the secure channel we agree
- Home health, facility nursing and caregiver support already in place
Call before the discharge date.
Early contact gives the receiving team time to plan the first visit.
Care is provided by clinicians from independent partner practices. Clinical decisions, orders and billing stay with the treating clinician and practice. For a medical emergency, call 911.
