Description

Hospital-Acquired Pressure Injuries (HAPI) are a growing concern, often resulting in higher treatment costs, increased readmission rates, and the development of additional hospital-acquired conditions. Nurses must navigate the complexities of selecting appropriate foam dressings to prevent and treat these injuries. This program will explore the use of multilayer foam dressings for both prevention and treatment, incorporating interactive sessions that enable participants to apply their newly acquired knowledge to real-world, case-based scenarios.

This session is supported by Smith+Nephew.
