Community Health Network recognized for advanced wound care treatment

For release on June 01, 2021

Community Health Network is proud to announce the Advanced Wound Care Center at Community Hospital East in Indianapolis and the Center for Advanced Wound Healing in Anderson have both been awarded the title Center for Distinction by Healogics, the nation’s largest provider of advance wound care services.

To receive the award, a Wound Center must achieve outstanding clinical outcomes for 12 consecutive months, including patient satisfaction higher than 92%, and a minimum wound healing rate of at least 92% within 28 median days to heal. Despite the unique challenges faced last year, our Centers maintained the highest standards of quality, safety and experience.

“We are honored to receive the Center of Distinction award at Community Hospital East. Our goal is to always provide exceptional care and deliver a personalized wound healing solution for the patients we serve. The care team at Community East’s Advanced Wound Center is amongst the best in the industry, I could not be more proud to work alongside such an amazing group! We are also very thankful for the administration and support staff at Community East that work in tandem with us daily and contribute to our achievements and overall success, it truly is a team effort”, said Jennifer Goulet, director of Community Hospital East Advanced Wound Care Center.

“Since opening our doors in 2010, our team has provided exceptional, life-changing wound care for the patients we serve. We are so proud of our team for being recognized for excellence for three consecutive years”, said Tracie Meeker, director of Community Hospital Anderson Center for Advanced Wound Healing.

Both Community Health Network Wound Care Centers are members of the Healogics network which provides access to benchmarking data and proven experience healing about 4 million chronic wounds.
