A hospital-based advantage

A wound that needs vascular assessment, imaging, pathology, or theatre-level care is not referred across town. Practicing inside a tertiary general hospital means the anesthesia, laboratory, imaging, and intensive-care backstop a complex wound needs is already in the same building — which is what makes an honest, staged wound plan possible.
