Pressure Ulcers - Understanding what went wrong through RCA and PSIRF

On Demand
Up-coming Webinar

This session will consider investigating pressure ulcer incidents within the context of Patient Safety Incident Response Framework (PSIRF) and the new National Wound Care Strategy Recommendations.

Undertaking investigations within your care home or home care team will help you understand what improvements need to be made, if any, to the care being delivered. Demonstrating that this activity is taking place, being acted upon and improving pressure ulcer incidents could support an improved CQC rating.

Prescribing seating for cognitively impaired users: exploring the risks

When prescribing seating, our aim is to meet the needs of the service user by prescribing a chair that will provide the right level of support, enable safe, easier assisted or independent transfers, reduce risk of pressure injuries and enable them to obtain and maintain a good sitting posture in the provided chair. However when a service user has a cognitive impairment and has poor risk awareness, additional risks are present. In this session we aim to outline some of these possible additional risks and how to overcome them to ensure the service user and their carers/family remain as safe as possible when the service user is seated in a chair that is there to meet their needs.
