We are pleased to announce that Hôpital de La Tour is the first hospital in French-speaking Switzerland to receive certification as a Wound Care Center.

We have received “Wound Care Center” certification from the Swiss Association for Wound Care – SafW-R, valid for three years. Our center is located on the ground floor of the building at 1bis J.-D. Maillard Avenue and is staffed by Dr. Karine Majchrzak and four specialized nurses: Sophie Marcot, lead nurse; Angélique Coulange; Laure Bouiller; and Stéphanie Ray Tripoli.

This accreditation entails high standards of quality and safety and is based on a set of guidelines developed with the complexity of caring for patients with acute and chronic wounds (excluding diabetic foot ulcers) in mind, both in outpatient and inpatient settings.

Congratulations to our doctor and nurses, who have been recognized for the excellence of their care!
