Pioneer Care
Pay as you go
Some patients prefer a pay-as-you-go option with Pioneer Care, offering the flexibility to attend a single visit with a written treatment plan for their local provider or to book follow-up appointments as needed to monitor their progress.
Pioneer Care Packages
A patient may prefer to book a package of care that includes a full assessment and a series of follow-up appointments tailored to their goals, (whether it’s healing, pain reduction, improved mobility, or enhanced quality of life) with the treatment plan and objectives reviewed and adjusted as their condition evolves.
During a 1st full assessment appointment patients can expect a full assessment of their condition. This includes an in-depth review of medical history, medications, previous test results, impact of the condition on their quality of life and any treatments already tried by the patient. Using specialist diagnostic equipment, Pioneer will carry out further tests/scans/body measurements (blood tests if needed). Patients will be provided with a diagnosis, a treatment plan and advice/education on the best way forward for them and their condition. The appointment includes all dressings/bandages during the appointment and a spare dressing change set to take away.
*Compression therapy i.e. stockings/garments are not included in the Pay As You Go option but can be purchased separately if required.
