Wound care service

About this service

Most cuts and grazes can be treated at home and will start to heal in a few days. But some wounds may need to be treated by a medical professional if there’s a risk of infection, if the injury is serious, or if you have recently had an operation.

Simple wound care services are available across some parts of north east London to support patients with managing wounds such as skin ulcers, first degree superficial burns, post-surgical sutures, clips removal and routine dressings.

Who can use this service

If you are registered with a GP practice in Barking & Dagenham, Havering, and Redbridge and have been advised by your doctor or nurse to get support with managing your wound, you can book an appointment seven days a week.
