There’s a persistent assumption in wound care: that affordable means inferior. ActivHeal® was built to prove otherwise. Developed specifically for the NHS by Advanced Medical Solutions, it’s priced lower than leading branded dressings — and clinically proven to match or outperform them.
But cost-effective wound care isn’t just about what’s on the price list. It’s about how quickly a wound heals, how often a dressing needs changing, and how much nursing time each patient requires. When you add all of that up, the true cost looks very different from the unit price. Fewer changes. Faster healing. Fewer complications. That’s where the real savings are achieved.
