Ulcer Clinics

Sisters of Compassion have a rich tradition of responding to the changing needs of the people they serve by restoring lives to value through respect and practical compassionate care.

Sisters of Compassion provide a healing and holistic atmosphere for people suffering with leg ulcers, especially for those people who are unable to access treatment elsewhere.

The Sisters also provide ongoing education for clinicians, including practice nurses and general practitioners on good wound/ulcer care.
