NOVA Chapter 160

To celebrate Pressure Injury Awareness Day, the Wound/Ostomy Team at the Lake City VA Medical Center once again rolled out the mobile education cart to provide educational awareness, but this time the topic was pressure injury prevention. The Team provided educational materials from the National Pressure Injury Advisory Panel (NPIAP) with descriptions and photos of the various pressure injury stages. The mobile cart was decorated with the “STOP” theme, and taken to units for the nurses and staff  to review. The Wound/Ostomy Team provided information on the products that are used throughout the facility. The name of each participant  was entered for a drawing for a  gift card. The staff were very appreciative to receive this education that was provided.
