One of the major problems afflicting the current wound treatment services is the execution of the wound care model, in which the services are often delivered in an unfocused, non-structured fashion whereby a mixture of different medical disciplines and healthcare workers are involved.
​
Furthermore, in most centres, staff members are employed on a part-time basis in an outpatient setting. When hospitalization is necessary, the patient is often referred to a department in dermatology, surgery, internal medicine, or other relevant departments where knowledge of wound treatment is generally limited. This highlights the importance of a specialized wound care centre where care can be provided comprehensively and succinctly in a one-stop centre for the benefit of patients.
