Webinar Series: Befuddled About Support Surfaces? Become and Expert


CAOT-BC is partnering with HMEDA and the BC Care Providers Association to provide access to exclusive training webinars. 

The first of the series: 

Befuddled About Support Surfaces? Become an Expert

The purpose of this workshop is to gain an understanding of how and why support surfaces can help effectively manage pain to the clients’ and care givers’ satisfaction. Pressure injuries are painful and cause suffering and complicate the care and quality of life for the dying. Although wound care can be both healing and palliative, it can impair the quality of the end of life for the dying if it is done without proper consideration of the patient’s wishes and best interests. This lecture will discuss the ethical responsibilities and challenges of controlling pain, treating pressure injuries and related role and function of support surfaces
