Overview:
Pressure ulcers are a major contributor to morbidity, mortality and decreased quality of life. Patients are particularly at risk of developing a pressure ulcer if immobile, incontinent or cognitively impaired. Pressure injuries are largely avoidable injuries. A lot of pain can be reduced and money saved from preventing moderate pressure injuries (Stage I and II) from developing into severe cases (Stage III and IV).
About this seminar:
The purpose of this seminar is to educate health professionals working in hospitals, disability and aged care, the management techniques surrounding pressure injuries and methods of care to prevent these largely avoidable injuries. New pressure care products are becoming increasingly sophisticated. For best patient outcomes are to be achieved, being up-to-date with pressure care management strategies and effective use of product functions is essential.
This pressure management seminar is FREE of charge and we encourage all therapists and clinicians to attend.
