Turning Education into Prevention

Inside a Health System's Journey to

Zero Avoidable HAPIS (Hospital Acquired Pressure Injuries)

And yet they continue to occur. Our experience shows that with leadership commitment, the right resources, and structured competency-based training, even ambitious goals - such as reaching Zero Avoidable Stage 3–4 HAPIs - can be achieved.

Explore a real-world case study on how a health system achieved Zero Avoidable Stage 3–4 HAPIs by leveraging a customized HAPI Prevention Competency Module as part of a comprehensive, system-wide prevention initiative.
