The Judy Dan Wound Care Centre was created with funds donated to Ontario Wound Care Inc.

The Centre is located on the second floor at 555 Finch Avenue West (former Branson Hospital). View directions.

The Centre is named in memory of Judy Dan, who had diabetes and suffered with diabetic wounds and amputations. The Centre will provide treatment for patients with chronic non-healing wounds.

The facility is the first of its kind in Canada, providing treatment for approximately 120 patients a year, using 3 ‘state-of-the-art’ Pan America Hyperbarics Inc. chambers as shown in the following photo.

The Judy Dan Wound Care Centre will be using and evaluating leading edge diagnostic technology, such as non-invasive, transcutaneous oxygen monitoring.

This instrument measures the oxygen concentration in the skin surrounding a wound and compares it to normal tissue. This demonstrates if a wound is hypoxic (lacking in oxygen) the severity, and helps determine treatment options.
