Gateway Wound Care — Kansas City brings board-certified NPs to homes, assisted living facilities, and skilled nursing facilities throughout Clay County, Missouri. No clinic trip. Medicare accepted.
Gateway nurse practitioners visit patients across Clay County:
Clay County, Missouri sits on the north side of the Missouri River and forms the Northland portion of the Kansas City metro. Cities include Liberty, Kearney, Smithville, Excelsior Springs, parts of Gladstone, and North Kansas City — served by Liberty Hospital and North Kansas City Hospital. The county has a growing older-adult population and a network of assisted living and skilled nursing facilities where Gateway routinely provides wound care.
Gateway Wound Care — Kansas City is a mobile, NP-led wound care practice. Our nurse practitioners travel to patient homes, assisted living facilities (ALFs), skilled nursing facilities (SNFs), and memory care communities to deliver specialty-level wound management without the patient having to travel to a clinic. Missouri-side operations are live across the Kansas City MO metro.
Our service model is designed for patients who cannot easily access a hospital outpatient wound clinic — frail elderly patients, patients recovering from surgery or stroke, patients with advanced diabetes, pressure-injury patients in long-term care, and any patient whose mobility makes a clinic visit a hardship. We accept Medicare Part B and coordinate with most commercial insurance plans; insurance benefits are verified before the first visit at no cost to the patient or family.
