FORT SMITH, Ark. – Baptist Health Wound & Hyperbaric Center–Fort Smith is pleased to welcome back Jennifer Williams, APRN, to its specialized wound care team.

Williams provides compassionate, patient-focused care rooted in trust, education and shared decision-making. She believes every patient deserves to feel heard, respected, and fully informed throughout their healing journey. Her approach emphasizes not only treating wounds, but supporting patients and families as they work toward improved quality of life.

“I care deeply about the community I serve and the impact quality healthcare can have on individuals and their families,” Williams said. “My goal is to help patients heal while feeling confident and empowered in their care plan.”

Baptist Health Wound & Hyperbaric Center–Fort Smith offers comprehensive, evidence-based treatment options for complex and non-healing wounds, including:

• Advanced dressings and topical treatments

• Negative pressure wound therapy
• Bioengineered skin substitutes
