| Abstract | Identifies factors affecting pressure injury prevention in aged residential care. Interviews 10 staff from two aged care facilities, along with relevant policy and practice documents.

Finds a correlation between difficult work conditions with high-dependency patients and complex care needs, and prevalence of pressure injuries. | ||||
