Abstract
About this time last year, I wrote about Courtney Lyder’s remarkable way of highlighting issues to those that don’t always see the problem. Once again, he has thrown down another challenge to practitioners. At a recent conference held in the UK, he supported the motion that all pressure ulcers are preventable. Opposing the motion was Elizabeth Ayello, Clinical Associate Professor at the John A. Hartford Institute for Geriatric Nursing, New York University, USA.Keywords
