Hyperbaric And Wound Care

Advanced Healing Begins With Our Team

Lakeview Hospital is one of only four facilities in Utah to offer advanced hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) using a fully accredited, multi-place hyperbaric chamber. This treatment involves the delivery of pure 100% oxygen in our pressurized chamber to patients with certain injuries or medical conditions.

If you have a severe wound or one that has not healed over time, HBOT can help you heal better and faster. Remember too, HBOT can save lives if carbon monoxide poisoning ever strikes you or your family unexpectedly.
