Worldwide Pressure Injury Day

Stop pressure injuries.

Whether you’re directly consulting with patients at risk for pressure injuries or advising a client on proper prevention and treatment methods, taking the time to learn more about the link between pressure injuries and nutrition is important.

The National Pressure Injury Advisory Panel (NPIAP) has announced that Thursday, November 18, 2021 will mark the celebration of Worldwide Pressure Injury Day. The objective of this day is to educate the public on the prevention of pressure injuries.

Nutrition professionals can make a difference on Worldwide Pressure Injury Day by exploring nutritional interventions for prevention and proper healing once a pressure injury has formed. We’ve also included a special course bundle of ours for you to continue your education on the topic!
