Wound care patients — typically those with diabetic foot wounds, post-surgical wounds, pressure ulcers, or vascular insufficiency wounds — require frequent outpatient clinic visits, often 1–3 times per week for weeks or months. The wound care process is ongoing and attendance is critical; missed visits delay healing and raise infection risk. DachiPlus provides standing-order recurring transportation to all major wound care centers across Long Island, with special attention to mobility limitations, dressing protection, and patient comfort during transfer.
For patients in Shirley, DachiPlus provides dependable wound care transport. From Shirley, that usually means trips to NYU Langone Suffolk, LICH and NYU Langone Suffolk Wound Care & Hyperbaric (Patchogue), roughly 16 minutes away. Covered by Medicaid through MAS, or pay privately at (516) 754-7777.
