Patient Care & Patient Satisfaction
(Oswego, NY – May 11, 2021) Oswego Health is proud to share that the Center for Wound Healing has recently been recognized nationally for its commitment to patient care.
Physicians, leaders, and clinicians at Oswego Hospital gathered today to celebrate the Robert A.

This Center has scored in the top 10 percent of eligible Healogics® Wound Care Centers® on the Clinical Excellence measure, which is the Comprehensive Healing Rate weighted by wound mix. The Center was awarded this prestigious honor by Healogics, the nation's largest provider of advanced wound care services. This award is named for Dr. Robert A. Warriner III, a pioneer in wound care and the former Chief Medical Officer for Healogics.
In addition, the Center for Wound Healing was also the recipient of the Center of Distinction. The Center achieved outstanding clinical outcomes for twelve consecutive months, including patient satisfaction rates higher than 92 percent and a minimum wound healing rate of at least 92 percent within 28 median days to heal.
