Delivering Pressure Injury Prevention & Management in Redlands

On the islands, prevention is not the preferred strategy so much as the only viable one. Getting equipment across is slow and getting a deteriorating injury reviewed is slower, so island plans run conservative repositioning schedules and trained household skin checks between nurse blocks.

Frequently Asked Questions | Pressure Injury Prevention & Management Redlands

How is pressure injury prevention handled on the bay islands?
More conservatively than on the mainland. Households are trained in daily skin inspection and repositioning, thresholds for reporting are low, and photos can be reviewed the day they are sent. Equipment logistics are slow across the water, so we get ahead of problems rather than reacting.
Can a serious pressure injury be managed at home in the Redlands?
Often yes, with the treating team at Redland Hospital involved and staged reviews scheduled. Where an injury needs specialist input beyond home management we say so plainly rather than persisting at home past the point where it is the right call.
