CAMPs vs. HBOT

 Which Works Best for Wound Care?


When it comes to wound care in facilities and at home, choosing the right treatment can mean the difference between healing and hospitalization. That’s why Agape Life Multicultural Services (ALMS) has released a new guide comparing Cellular and Advanced Modalities/Products (CAMPs) and Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT).


Why This Matters for Families and Facilities

Wound care is one of the most overlooked aspects of long-term care. Facilities often struggle to keep up with compliance, staff education and documentation while families face the stress of transporting loved ones to distant wound centers.

ALMS provides clarity by showing which treatments are practical, effective and patient-centered.

The Breakdown: CAMPs vs. HBOT

Cellular and Advanced Modalities/Products (CAMPs)
✅ Delivered on-site in homes, assisted living, SNFs or rehab centers. NO travel required
✅ Application takes minutes, not hours
✅ Weekly or bi-weekly visits fit seamlessly into patient routines
✅ Medicare Part B often covers approved CAMP products
✅ Effective for diabetic ulcers, venous ulcers, arterial ulcers, pressure injuries and surgical wounds

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy (HBOT)
⚠️ Requires travel to specialized centers with oxygen chambers
⚠️ Treatments last 90 minutes per session, 5 days per week, often for 6–8 weeks
⚠️ Not practical for patients with mobility or transportation challenges
⚠️ Limited access in rural and suburban regions
⚠️ Best results only in very specific cases (e.g., ischemic diabetic ulcers, radiation injuries)

The ALMS Advantage
At ALMSPllc, wound care is about accessibility, compassion and results. CAMPs fit our mobile care model perfectly effective, efficient and delivered directly at the bedside.

For rare cases where HBOT is appropriate, ALMS coordinates referrals while continuing wound management locally to ensure seamless care.

Bottom Line
👉 CAMPs are practical, accessible and patient-friendly.
👉 HBOT can be effective but requires time, travel and commitment that most residents and homebound patients can’t manage.

 Delivering Compassionate, Expert Wound Care,  Right to Your Doorstep For many patients, getting to a wound care clinic isn’t just inconvenient, it’s nearly impossible. Mobility challenges, chronic illnesses and lack of reliable transportation can delay care, allowing small wounds to become big problems. That’s where mobile wound care comes in, bringing expert treatment right to the patient’s home or care facility. The Growing Need for In-Home Wound Care Chronic wounds affect millions of Americans, with seniors and those managing conditions like diabetes or heart disease at the highest risk. Left untreated, these wounds can lead to infection, hospitalization or even amputation. Yet, many patients miss critical care because travel to a clinic is simply not realistic. Mobile wound care removes this barrier ensuring patients get the same level of professional treatment without leaving their familiar surroundings.
