Delivering Pressure Injury Prevention & Management in Brisbane

Pressure injuries are largely preventable, and prevention is an equipment and routine problem rather than a dressing one. Our Brisbane nurses check the cushion, the mattress and the actual sitting hours, and push for occupational therapy review when the equipment is what is failing.

Frequently Asked Questions | Pressure Injury Prevention & Management Brisbane

Can you prevent pressure injuries rather than just treat them?
That is the more valuable half of the service. Risk assessment, repositioning schedules, skin inspection and honest equipment review prevent most injuries outright. Where a cushion or mattress is inadequate, we say so and push for an OT review rather than dressing the consequence forever.
Do you work with my Brisbane hospital's staging and plan?
Yes. We continue the treatment plan set at the PA, the Royal Brisbane or wherever the injury was staged, document each dressing with photos and measurements, and escalate when progress stalls. Outpatient reviews then start from evidence rather than recollection.
