    Abstract:
    Pressure ulcer management is an increasingly serious problem for the healthcare industry. It is necessary for acute care facilities to examine the benefits of developing a comprehensive skin care protocol for pressure ulcer management. Increased and continuous staff awareness produces quality patient care and cost effectiveness. The description of the development, use, and auditing of a skin care protocol by Western Reserve Care System is representative of many institutions across the country.
