Different Kinds Of Wounds And How They Need To Be Addressed

Here is a detailed guide to the different kinds of wounds.

Acute And Chronic Wounds

Wounds can be acute or chronic, depending on how the body reacts to its healing process. Acute wounds heal as predicted and expected by the doctor . In contrast, the healing of chronic wounds cannot be predicted as the process is disrupted due to underlying factors such as infections, diabetes, trauma and more.

Open Wounds

The term ‘open wound’ refers to when there is a tear or break in the external or internal tissue of the skin because of an injury. An open wound can be minor or major. Minor injuries do not require special medical aid and will resolve by themselves at home.

Abrasion:

The term ‘abrasion’ in the context of wounds refers to a wound that occurs when the skin rubs against a rough surface. Generally, the outer layer of the skin is damaged in this case. The likelihood of heavy bleeding is low, although medical aid is necessary.

Puncture:

The term ‘puncture’ in the context of wounds refers to a wound that is caused when the skin comes under attack from a pointed object. The injury, in this case, is mostly deep. This means the likelihood of damage to internal organs is high in this case. It can also cause infection in the affected area.

Laceration:

The term ‘laceration’ in the context of wounds refers to a wound that occurs due to a deep cut in the skin from objects such as tools or machinery. In this case, the extent of the injury is high, leading to quicker and higher blood loss compared to abrasions.

Avulsion:

The term ‘avulsion’ in the context of wounds refers to a wound that is caused by a severely traumatic incident. This leads to the partial or complete tearing away of the skin layer. The bleeding rate and blood loss are quite high in this case and require immediate medical attention.

Incision:

The term ‘incision’ in the context of wounds refers to a wound or opening made by a surgeon during a surgical procedure. The size and complexity of an incision depend on the kind of medical procedure you went through. Incisions are generally managed by the doctor in question to avoid infections or other complications.

Closed Wounds:

The term ‘closed wound’ refers to when the outer layer of the skin shows no damage from the injury. However, the internal tissue or organs are affected. Often caused by blunt trauma incidents such as car accidents, there can be a minor or major impact on the bones, muscles or organs underlying the area in question.

FAQs

1) What is NDIS wound care support in NSW?

NDIS wound care means safely checking, treating, and keeping an eye on both new and old wounds at home or in the community. In New South Wales, registered and enrolled nurses (RN/EN) can change dressings, stop pressure injuries, take care of diabetic feet, take care of wounds after surgery, and teach.

2) Who is eligible for NDIS wound care supports?

If wound management impacts your daily living, safety, or independence, you may be eligible under Core or Capacity Building funding when it’s reasonable and necessary. We help gather evidence from your GP, podiatrist, or specialist to support your plan.

3) What wound types do you treat?

We manage pressure injuries, venous/arterial leg ulcers, diabetic foot ulcers, surgical wounds, skin tears, burns, stomas/peristomal skin, and infected wounds (with GP collaboration). Care includes wound assessment, debridement coordination, compression, and off-loading where appropriate.

4) Do you provide wound care at home in Sydney and regional NSW?

Yes. We service Greater Sydney, Western Sydney/Parramatta, Newcastle & Hunter, Wollongong/Illawarra, and the Central Coast, with options for the Blue Mountains, Lake Macquarie, and nearby regional hubs. Ask about your specific suburb.

5) How often will a nurse visit for wound dressings?

Frequency depends on the wound stage, exudate, infection risk, and your goals. We create a care plan with clear visit schedules—daily, several times weekly, or weekly—plus escalation pathways if the wound deteriorates.

6) Can you supply dressings and specialist products?

We coordinate with your pharmacist and suppliers for advanced dressings, compression kits, negative-pressure therapy (VAC) consumables, and off-loading devices. Your plan covers supports; you may pay for certain consumables if not funded.

7) How do you keep wound care safe and infection-controlled?

Our nurses follow AHPRA standards, aseptic technique, hand hygiene, and sharps/clinical waste procedures. We use photographic monitoring (with consent), wound charts, and incident reporting to track healing and reduce infection risk.

8) Do you work with GPs, hospitals, podiatrists and allied health?

Absolutely. We collaborate on care plans, antibiotic scripts, vascular assessments, podiatry off-loading, dietitian input for nutrition, and hospital-to-home transitions. This joined-up approach speeds healing and prevents readmission.

9) How much do NDIS wound care services cost in NSW?

Pricing follows the NDIS Pricing Arrangements and Price Limits for community nursing and support workers. If you’re plan- or agency-managed, we invoice your plan. We provide a transparent service agreement that lists inclusions and any consumable costs.
