Assessment of Pressure Ulcer Care Plan
Does the care plan for pressure ulcers address all the areas below (as they apply)?
Yes | No | Person Responsible | Comments | |
---|---|---|---|---|
Impaired Mobility Assist with turning, rising, position Encourage ambulation Limit static sitting to 2 hours at any time | ||||
Pressure Relief Support surfaces: Bed Support surfaces: Chair Pressure-relieving devices Repositioning Bottoming out in bed and chair* | ||||
Nutritional Improvement Supplements Feeding assistance Adequate fluid intake Dietitian consult as needed | ||||
Urinary Incontinence Toileting plan Wet checks Treat causes Assist with hygiene Use of skin barriers and protectants | ||||
Fecal Incontinence Toileting plan Soiled checks | ||||
Skin Condition Check Intactness Color Sensation Temperature | ||||
Treatment Physician-prescribed regimen Appropriateness to wound staging Treatment reassessment timeframe | ||||
Pain Screen for pain related to ulcer Choose appropriate pain med Provide regular pain med administration Reassess effectiveness of med Assess/treat side effects Change or cease pain med as needed |
* To determine if a patient has bottomed out, the caregiver should place his or her outstretched hand (palm up) under the mattress overlay below the existing pressure ulcer or that part of the body at risk for pressure formation. If the caregiver can feel that the support material is less than an inch thick at this site, the patient has bottomed out.
2G: Pieper Pressure Ulcer Knowledge Test
Background: This tool can be used to assess staff knowledge on pressure ulcer prevention. The 47-item test was developed by Pieper and Mott in 1995 to examine the knowledge of nurses on pressure ulcer prevention, staging, and wound description. Questions 1, 3, 15, 29, 33, and 40 have been modified from the original to make it more specific to hospital care.
Reference: Pieper B, Mott M. Nurses’ knowledge of pressure ulcer prevention, staging, and description. Adv Wound Care 1995;8:34-48.
Instructions:
- Administer the test to nursing and other clinical staff members.
- It is generally recommended that responses be anonymous, but some staff might appreciate the opportunity to receive individual feedback. Find out what people on your unit want to do.
- Use the answer key to evaluate the responses. Note that some questions may need to be modified for your hospital.
Use: Mean scores on this test are usually analyzed. Analyze the test results. If you find gaps of knowledge, work with your education department to develop and tailor educational programs that address these items.

2I: Action Plan
Background: The purpose of this tool is to provide a framework for outlining steps that will be needed to design and implement the pressure ulcer prevention initiative.
Reference: Adapted from material produced by MassPro, a participant in the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services Quality Improvement Organization Program.
Instructions:
- Note the date and the objective. A sample objective is provided.
- The form lists six key tasks. For each, list in the second column the steps that will be taken to address the task, including tools to be used.
- In developing the plan, it is not expected that you will provide results, only that you will lay out what needs to be done.
- In the last two columns, determine who will have lead responsibility for completing each task, and estimate an appropriate timeframe for completing the activities.
- Use the plan as a working document that can be revised. As you begin to carry out the plan, you may need to make adjustments and add details to the later tasks.
Use: Use the completed sheet to plan, manage, and carry out the identified tasks. The plan should guide the implementation process and can be continually amended and updated.
A sample completed form is shown below, followed by a blank form.
