dc.description	The prevalence and characteristics of pressure injuries and HAPIs was comparable with prior state-wide results. The survey identified variations in rates of: skin inspections, using risk assessment tools; and applying plans for those at risk of pressure injuries. Multivariable logistic regression identified areas for improvement: the main groups at risk of pressure injuries; and patient groups with lower rates of skin inspections and screening	en_US
dc.description.abstract	A point prevalence survey was conducted across Western Australia to monitor adherence to national safety and quality health service standards, and to create baseline data on which to improve. The study identified significant areas for targeted interventions.	en_US
