To celebrate International Stop the Pressure Day, the tissue viability team are encouraging colleagues create a prevent pressure ulcers display as part of a display board competition.

The challenge is to design a ‘Stop the Pressure Day’ display board for your ward which shows

  • Factors that can increase/decrease the risk of patients developing pressure damage
  • How you assess your patient for their level of risk of pressure damage
  • How you reduce the risk of pressure damage
  • What you are doing to prevent pressure ulcers in your area.

The judging process will take place on Monday 21 November.

All those entering the ward board competition for Stop the Pressure Day should email tissueviability2@nhs.net by 4pm on Friday 18 November.
