What is Pressure Area Care Training?
Pressure sore prevention, also known as tissue viability training for nurses, is a key component of tissue viability nurse training. With a renewed focus on prevention, it has never been more important to ensure your service is set up robustly to prevent pressure sores. Our Training is also tailored for Care Staff as well as Nursing Staff.
Our course covers the SSKIN/ASKIN and the BESTSHOT model of tissue viability used in the NHS to understand the risks individuals may face. Having robust documentation and care plans is just as important as maintaining a clean track record of no pressure sores within your service.
Our Pressure Sore Prevention training course is perfect for people who work in home care services, care homes, hospitals and hospices. As with all out training, we tailor it to suit the needs of the people we are training. This means our session can be tailored for specific staffing situations, whether they are experienced or new to pressure sore prevention.
There are plenty of benefits to undertaking this pressure area care training, from helping staff understand how pressure sores develop, to identifying who is most at risk, through to prevention and early detection of developing wounds.
Knowing you have properly trained staff who have the knowledge, skills, and understanding of pressure sore prevention is a huge benefit. It helps prevent wounds, reduce safeguarding incidents, improve service user well-being, and enhance your organisation's reputation.

Very good training. The trainer was really professional and easy going at the same time. We went through the quiz and the whole course was interactive and engaging. 5 stars!
Irmina - Carer (5 Star Google Review)
Very informative about the specified subject. Very relaxed & professional. Without these training courses we wouldn't get to know detailed things about the certain aspects that we have to deal with when a patient comes to our nursing home.
