ABC Hospital is a small, privately-owned community hospital. It has been struggling to survive financially, as reimbursement rates have declined and consumers are being drawn to the larger state-of-the-art hospital facilities in urban areas that are perceived to have better quality. ABC Hospital was built in 1960 and has been operating in the same manner for many decades. The hospital meets legal and regulatory requirements but has not kept pace with some of the newer technologies and patient conveniences becoming more prevalent in the health care industry.

National Patient Safety Goals Effective January 1, 2015

Goal 14

Prevent health care-associated pressure ulcers (decubitus ulcers)

Pressure ulcers are also called pressure ulcers or bedsores. Its classification ranged from reddening of the skin to the presence of cave-in injuries and muscle or bone injuries (stage IV) (1). Pressure ulcers are injuries caused by pressure, friction or shear, or by a combination of these 3 types of forces, which affect the skin and subsequent tissues. Although skin, fat, and muscle tissue can withstand significant pressures for short periods of time, prolonged exposure to a certain amount of pressure slightly greater than capillary compression pressure (32 mmHg) can cause skin necrosis and ulceration (2, 3 ). As little as two hours of uninterrupted depression can cause irreversible changes (2, 3).
