Pressure Area Care Training is facilitated by Registered Clinicians with extensive experience
Overview
Facilitated by registered nurses with first hand clinical experience, this ½ day blended learning course allows attendees to gain theoretical and practical pressure area care knowledge.
This training course is intended to cover all aspects of pressure area care including practical application within a classroom or virtual environment.
Why Is It Important?
The 2009 Parkside Nursing Home tragedy marked a turning point in raising awareness for pressure area care training. 5 residents within their care died between July 22nd and August 6th as a direct response from pressure ulcers developed during their admission. 
Since 2009 various initiatives have been introduced, however incidents of pressure ulcers remain at a disappointingly high level. Each year in the NHS in England, just under a quarter of a million patients develop a new pressure ulcer with, on average, 2000 newly acquired pressure ulcers developing each month (Public Health England, 2015). 
Pressure ulcers are the result of tissue damage caused by diminishing blood supply to the skin, usually because the area has been placed under pressure (NPUAP/EPUAP/PPPIA, 2014). It is felt 95% of all pressure sores are avoidable.

Pressure Area Care Training Session Outline
Anatomy and physiology
Risk assessment, skin assessment and care

Why is Mouth Care and Oral Hygiene Important?
Effective oral hygiene practices (mouth care) are necessary to ensure the maintenance of effective oral health through the removal of bacterial plaque, dry mouth care and denture care. Good oral health is important for eating and drinking, communication, the absence of pain and infection, and paramount for dignity and comfort. There is increasing evidence linking poor oral health to systemic diseases including cardiovascular disease, diabetes and hospital acquired pneumonia.

This training course is intended to cover the knowledge and principles of good record keeping. Appreciation of the legal, regulatory, contractual requirements around record keeping. Good clinical entries, tools in relation to the record life cycle, skills to assess the quality of your own record keeping.

Why Is It Important?
Nursing documentation is the cornerstone of best practice. It serves many diverse, complex and important functions from ensuring consistency of clinical care and good communication between practitioners, to providing evidence in a court of law that patients have received appropriate, high-quality, evidence-based care… or, indeed, that they have not. The phrase ‘if it is not documented, it was not done’ should be the guiding principle used when documenting care in order to ensure that a clear picture of a patient’s care history can be gained.
Session Outline
An appreciation the regulatory, contractual and legal requirements regarding record keeping
Gain an understanding of how to make good clinical entries
Learn specific tools in relation to the record keeping lifecycle
Develop the skills to assess the quality of their record keeping

Record Keeping and Defensible Documentation Training

Our Stoma Care Training course allows learners to gain theoretical and practical stoma care knowledge.
Overview
Our stoma care training course is intended to cover all aspects of safe principles of stoma care including practical application within a classroom environment.

Why Is It Important?
The prevalence of stomas in the UK is significant, one in 335 people in the UK are currently living with a stoma (Colostomy UK, 2023). It is crucial to recognise that people of all age groups can have a stoma, emphasising the widespread impact and relevance of stoma care training.
While specialist stoma nurses typically provide specialised care for stoma patients, it is essential to acknowledge that these individuals may also receive care within clinical settings, where non-specialist healthcare professionals may be responsible for their well-being. Consequently, it becomes imperative for these healthcare professionals to possess a fundamental understanding of stoma management to effectively address the stoma-related health issues that patients may encounter.
In both routine stoma care and situations where complications arise, non-specialist healthcare professionals should be equipped with the necessary knowledge to recognise when it is appropriate to seek assistance from a stoma care nurse. By understanding the basics of stoma management, these professionals can ensure that patients receive the appropriate care and support, ultimately contributing to enhanced patient outcomes and quality of life.

Stoma Care Training Session Outline
Understanding the anatomy and physiology of stomas and different stoma types
Techniques for accurate measurement and template cutting for stomas
Proper procedures for emptying drainable stoma pouches
Understanding the process of changing stoma appliances, including both one-piece and two-piece options
Developing problem-solving skills for stoma-related challenges
Recognizing and managing complications associated with stomas

Why Is Multiple Sclerosis Care Important?
Multiple sclerosis is the most common cause of neurological disability in young adults. It is a disease of the brain and spinal cord, and a lifelong condition that usually follows a relapsing or progressive course and results in a gradual accumulation of permanent disability. MS causes a multitude of symptoms that affect physical and cognitive function as well as mood; symptoms vary between individuals and for the same individual. Although disease-modifying drugs (DMDs), which can change the disease course, are available for people with active relapsing disease, there is no cure. MS affects every aspect of people’s lives – work, family, social life –and is characterised by unpredictability and variability. This means a holistic approach to care is required to meet the needs of people living with the condition.

Why Delirium Care Important?
Delirium is a state of heightened mental confusion that commonly affects older people admitted to hospital. 96% of cases are experienced by older people. When older people with Dementia experience severe illness or trauma such as hip fracture they are more at risk of Delirium. This causes distress to patients, families and carers and has potentially serious consequences such as the likelihood of admission to long term care and increased mortality. People with Delirium may need to stay longer in Hospital and have increased incidence of Dementia and Hospital acquired complications such as falls and pressure ulcers.
