Wound Care

Wound care dressing types, explained

Wound care supplies come in several forms, each suited to different situations. Here is a plain-English overview of the common types. Which dressing is right depends on the wound, and that is a decision for your doctor or nurse. Our role is to help you get the exact product and size they recommend.

Gauze & sponges

Woven and non-woven cotton in pads, rolls, and sponges. The general-purpose supply for covering, packing, and cleaning under a provider's direction.

Foam dressings

Soft, absorbent foam pads, commonly used where there is moderate to heavier drainage. Available adhesive and non-adhesive.

Hydrocolloid dressings

Self-adhesive dressings that form a gel as they absorb moisture, often used to maintain a moist environment on lighter wounds.

Alginate dressings

Made from seaweed fibers and very absorbent, typically chosen for wounds with heavier drainage.

Non-adherent & specialty

Non-stick pads, transparent films, collagen, silver, and honey dressings for specific needs your provider may specify.

Cleansers, tapes & pads

Wound cleansers and sterile saline, medical tapes for securing dressings, and highly absorbent ABD pads for larger areas.

This is general product information, not medical advice. Follow the wound care plan your healthcare provider gives you.

Restocking or matching a provider's recommendation?

Many customers come to us with a product name, a photo of a box, or a supply list from a doctor, home-health nurse, or hospital discharge. Bring it in or call us, and we will help you find the exact dressing, size, and brand, or a comparable option if it is out of stock. If you go through supplies regularly, we can make reordering simple.

Wound care supplies: common questions

What wound care supplies do you carry?

We carry a broad range of wound care supplies: gauze and sponges, foam, hydrocolloid, and alginate dressings, non-adherent pads, transparent films, collagen and specialty dressings, wound cleansers and sterile saline, medical tapes, and ABD pads, from brands like McKesson, Medline, and Coloplast. If you need something you do not see, call us.

What is the difference between gauze, foam, hydrocolloid, and alginate dressings?

In simple terms: gauze is the general-purpose woven or non-woven pad. Foam is a soft, absorbent pad often used with more drainage. Hydrocolloid is a self-adhesive dressing that gels as it absorbs, often for lighter wounds. Alginate is made from seaweed fibers and is very absorbent for heavier drainage. Which one fits your wound is a decision for your doctor or nurse.

How do I choose the right dressing?

The right dressing depends on the wound, and your healthcare provider assesses that and recommends a product and size. Bring us their recommendation, a supply list, or the product name, and we will help you find it. We are happy to help you match a product, but we do not diagnose or advise on wound treatment.

Do I need a prescription to buy wound care supplies?

Most wound care supplies can be purchased without a prescription. Some situations or insurance-billed items may involve a provider's order. If you are unsure, call us and we will help.

Does insurance cover wound care supplies?

Coverage varies by plan and we cannot guarantee it. We sell supplies directly. If coverage matters to you, check with your insurance provider about wound care and dressing supplies before you buy.

Can you help me find the exact product my nurse recommended?

Yes, this is one of the most common things we help with. Bring or call in the product name, brand, or size, or a photo of the box, and we will find it or suggest a comparable option if it is unavailable.

Do you ship wound care supplies nationwide?

Yes. You can order online and we ship across the United States, with free shipping on orders over $75. Local customers can also shop at our Salt Lake City showroom.
