This program will assist clinicians in differentiating between the CMS State Operation Manual’s and the National Pressure Ulcer Advisory Panel’s pressure ulcer/injury definitions and staging descriptions. Content will guide the attendee in how to adapt this information into clinical and reporting practices for long-term care. This information is valuable to both new and seasoned wound care clinicians in the long-term care setting. 

At the end of this presentation participants will be able to:

• Recognize and compare the State Operations Manual’s Guidance to Surveyors and the National Pressure Ulcer Advisory Panel’s pressure ulcer/injury definitions and staging descriptions.
• Identify current CMS pressure ulcer/injury description and definitions for reporting and clinical best practices for documentation in the medical record.
