Hello!Can you please help me with this assignment? As the nursing home supervisor, you recognize the need for a process improvement plan based on this data. After speaking to your staff about best practices related to care of the immobilized client, you discover your facility has not been stocking skin barrier cream, and the UAPs have not been repositioning the residents per policy. Instead of taking disciplinary action against the staff at this time, you elect to implement an intensive education effort for the entire facility. RNs, LPNs, and UAPs will attend the same training.  Research and devise a comprehensive education plan to address the frequency of pressure injuries at your facility. The teaching plan should include, at a minimum: The proper use of barrier cream (How and when is it applied? Who can apply it?)  A minimum of 6 specific complications of immobility (Do not list 'respiratory complications'. Be specific). A minimum of 6 interventions to prevent the complications Proper ergonomics while moving or repositioning clients A plan to follow-up with your staff to assess the effectiveness of your in-service should also be included. How will you know your interventions were effective? What will you do if you find they were not? Thank you in advance!

Hello!
Can you please help me with this assignment?

As the nursing home supervisor, you recognize the need for a process improvement plan based on this data. After speaking to your staff about best practices related to care of the immobilized client, you discover your facility has not been stocking skin barrier cream, and the UAPs have not been repositioning the residents per policy. Instead of taking disciplinary action against the staff at this time, you elect to implement an intensive education effort for the entire facility. RNs, LPNs, and UAPs will attend the same training. 

Research and devise a comprehensive education plan to address the frequency of pressure injuries at your facility. The teaching plan should include, at a minimum:

    • The proper use of barrier cream (How and when is it applied? Who can apply it?) 
    • A minimum of 6 specific complications of immobility (Do not list 'respiratory complications'. Be specific).
    • A minimum of 6 interventions to prevent the complications
    • Proper ergonomics while moving or repositioning clients
    • A plan to follow-up with your staff to assess the effectiveness of your in-service should also be included. How will you know your interventions were effective? What will you do if you find they were not?

Thank you in advance!
