Wound care at home in Madrid
Wounds close better where you can rest
You bring the sofa. We bring the wound care and everything else.
Why heal at home
The nurse makes the journey, not your wound
Getting dressed, going out, waiting and coming back punishes a freshly operated wound — and moving someone who is bed-bound, even more. The care comes through your door with supplies, technique and a nurse who knows your case.
- 01
Your wound stays home
No stairs with fresh stitches, no journeys for someone who shouldn't be moving. The patient rests — that's their part of the treatment.
- 02
The same nurse, visit after visit
Whoever treats you today knows how the wound looked yesterday: we record its progress at every visit, and a WhatsApp photo covers anything that worries you in between.
- 03
No more dressing wounds by guesswork
The right dressing, sterile technique and supplies included. No more wrestling with the gauze in the medicine cabinet and crossing your fingers against infection.
How does the wound look today? What we treat
Every wound has its treatment. And its nurse.
From the post-surgery patient just home to the ulcer that has lasted months, every wound calls for its own protocol and rhythm of visits.
- 01
Post-surgery wound care
After an operation — knee, hip, C-section, cosmetic surgery — we follow your surgeon's protocol until the wound is fully closed.
Every 2-5 days, as prescribed - 02
Stitch and staple removal
With sterile material, checking first that the scar can take it. Quick, painless and without a trip to the health centre.
Single visit · day 5-21 - 03
Pressure ulcers
Scheduled care of bedsores in bed-bound patients, with a prevention plan and training for whoever cares for them at home.

Wounds that have gone weeks without closing call for consistency and clinical judgement: assessment, the right dressing and close follow-up.
Weekly follow-up - 05
Simple wound care
Clean, superficial wounds that only need cleaning, the prescribed antiseptic and a dressing — done properly, without overhandling.

Personalised plan
Doesn't your wound fit any of these boxes? Send us a photo on WhatsApp and a nurse will tell you what it needs — no obligation.
What sets us apart
Your wound, watched between visits
At every visit we record how the wound is evolving — size, edges, exudate — and message you afterwards with how it's going. If something changes between visits, one WhatsApp photo is enough for your nurse to assess it. The wound is never left alone, and you are never left wondering.
- Progress recorded at every visit
- A message afterwards — how it looks and what to watch
- Questions between visits, answered on WhatsApp
- If your doctor needs to know, we tell them with you

Frequently asked questions
Common questions about wound care at home
And for your wound in particular, one WhatsApp photo is worth a thousand searches.
What does a home wound care visit include?
The visit includes assessing the wound, cleaning and dressing it with healthcare supplies included (gauze, dressings, saline, antiseptic), recording its progress and a message afterwards telling you how it went. Highly specialised dressings, if your wound needs them, are quoted separately and transparently.
How often does a wound need treating?
It depends on the wound: post-surgery wounds are usually scheduled every 2-5 days, while ulcers and chronic wounds may need more frequent visits at first. On the first visit the nurse agrees the frequency with you and adjusts it as the wound evolves.
Do you follow my hospital's or my doctor's instructions?
Always: we work from your discharge report or your doctor's instructions, and if the wound changes or something concerns us, we tell you and coordinate with your team. We're the continuity of your care at home, not a separate circuit.
Can I send a photo of the wound before the visit?
Yes — in fact we recommend it: a WhatsApp photo lets us anticipate the material needed and tell you whether the wound can wait until tomorrow or should be seen today. It's a natural part of how we work.
How much does wound care at home cost in Madrid?
It depends on the type of wound care, the frequency and your area; we give you a fixed price before we start, with travel and basic supplies included. The WhatsApp consultation is free and carries no obligation.
Do you handle urgent wound care, or weekends?
We work 24/7, every day of the year, and many visits happen the same day you write to us. If the dressing comes loose on a Sunday or you're discharged on a Saturday, you don't wait until Monday.
