Skin care strategies in a skilled nursing home
Abstract:
1. Pressure ulcers continue to be a serious problem in nursing home settings. They are significant as a source of discomfort and disability among nursing home residents, as well as a source of financial concern for the institutional agencies responsible for resident care. 2. Prevention and intervention at the earliest stages of pressure ulcer development offer the most effective approaches to mediating the human and economic costs imposed by pressure ulcers. 3. Strategies that are effective in reducing both the development and severity of pressure ulcers can be successfully implemented in long-term care settings. Further studies are needed that will provide additional support for the strategies and protocols used in this study.
