Pressure Area Care Supplement

Pressure ulcer prevalence can be reduced to zero if a well-resourced and well-supported prevention programme is put in place.

To succeed, this requires awareness of key management skills and priorities, such as strong leadership, involvement of staff in decision-making and a desire to foster interdisciplinary relationship. At the heart of such a programme, however, should be the desire to ensure optimum patient outcomes.
