Riding on the success of our education series featuring the latest research and innovative approaches to prevent and manage Pressure Injuries, our clinical educator and trainer Annette Terranova delivered another impactful Pressure Management Seminar for therapists and clinicians in Geraldton.

Pressure Injuries are currently at the top of the list of hospital acquired complications. With the right strategies in place, they are preventable, unnecessary causes of pain.

Combined with her experience working in aged care for over 30 years, Annette’s provided a comprehensive overview of Pressure Injury Prevention and Care, including interactions that focussed on the practicalities of seating and positioning to prevent pressure injuries and improved patient transfer methods to reduce shear.
