Pressure Injury Prevention
Join us for this webinar with Wendy White to discuss pressure injury prevention and a current concept of ‘bundling’ care delivery which focuses on the "bigger picture’’ of individualised pressure injury risk. Identifying risk is not what prevents pressure injury – it is the focused, purposeful actions implemented by organisations, clinicians and at-risk individuals, that make the difference in avoidable pressure related injury. This presentation will overview the acronym aSSKINg, a multimodal conceptual team approach to prevention, and discuss benefits of structuring our approach for those in our care.
