Sponsor's own description

The purpose of this study is to determine whether repositioning frequency can be extended for nursing home (NH) residents who are low, moderate, and high risk for pressure ulcer (PrU) development. The investigators will also determine how changes in medical severity interact with changes in risk level and repositioning schedule to predict PrU development. This study will advance knowledge about repositioning frequency and clinically assessed PrU risk-level in relation to medical severity. Outcomes of this research will contribute to future guidelines for more precise preventive nursing practices and refinement of PrU prevention guidelines.
