Supporting Nurses on International Nurses Day

Nurses make an invaluable contribution to society; to the health and wellbeing of the individual, the wellbeing of the family unit and, of course, the strength of economies all over the world. Yes, nurses truly represent the backbone of society – especially here in the UK where we’re blessed with the NHS. 

So, on this, International Nurses Day – which also happens to be Florence Nightingale’s birthday! -, we’re taking the opportunity to celebrate just how wonderful nurses are and looking at how, here at Pressure Care Management, we can support the wellbeing of nurses.

Supporting the Wellbeing of Nurses on International Nurses Day

Our extensive range of PosiPerle positioning cushions serve to help and support the wellbeing of nurses by facilitating easier and more comfortable patient positioning, which is crucial for pressure ulcer prevention, as well as overall patient comfort. 

Alongside this, PosiPerle Cushions also – 

Lower the risk of injury: allowing for quick, simple and dignified repositioning, PosiPerle positioning cushions work to relieve pressure on at-risk areas, whilst also lowering the risk of nurse or patient injury during repositioning. 

Help save time & energy: significantly reducing the amount of time spent finding a comfortable position for the patient to sit or lie in, PosiPerle cushions also save nurses valuable time and energy; streamlining patient movement.

Reduce fatigue: nurses work incredibly hard – often on their feet for long periods of time over lengthy shifts – and less physical exertion spent positioning and repositioning patients means nurses can conserve energy throughout those long shifts, and reduce the risk of fatigue.

Improve patient outcomes: positioning cushions help prevent pressure ulcers, which leads to fewer complications for nurses to manage and vastly improved patient outcomes, as well as safer and more dignified care.
