Keep your at-risk patients happy and healthy with these three best practices for preventing new pressure ulcers from developing: • Encourage patients to change positions frequently, reducing prolonged pressure on vulnerable areas. • Keep skin clean and hydrated, especially around bony areas, to maintain elasticity and prevent breakdown. • Wrap the wound in a friction-free bandage. Bandages designed with sliding, unbonded layers can reduce frictional energy by up to 45%. The right dressing design, plus consistent motion and proactive care make all the difference in positive patient outcomes.
