AHCA Product of the Week – Pressure Injury Prevention and Wound Management in LTC

This pressure injury prevention and wound management webinar is presented by Jeanine Maguire, a wound consultant and educator with almost three decades of wound care focus and expertise. 

In this webinar, Jeanine emphasizes a patient-centric approach and the importance of routine and comprehensive risk assessment and skin checks. She discusses the challenges of Deep Tissue Injury and the controversy over whether pressure injuries are a result of end-of-life or a combination of factors. Jeanine highlights the need for accurate documentation and understanding of medically unavoidable wounds. She also stresses the importance of a multidisciplinary team approach, ongoing monitoring, and communication. Lastly, Jeanine provides links to CMS F tag 686, the critical element pathway, PAWSIC (the Wound Provider Group checklist), and NPIAP for further reference.  

*Note that some information shared will change with the RAI updates from October 2023, but the presentation discusses how to prepare for those changes.
