Pressure Care in Sitting

Pressure Care in sitting forms an important part of a holistic pressure care plan. Understanding the evidence and applying it to available AT is essential in reaching client goals.

Appreciating the complex nature of the sitting position and the physiology of the body when positioned will form the basis for effective assistive technology recommendations.

In this webinar, we will cover:

- Aetiology of pressure in sitting

- Positioning to maximise sitting goals

- Science and evidence of a cushion

- Assistive technology options

At the end of this session, you will have a thorough understanding of the concerns and also the positive potential of the sitting position to assist in determining appropriate strategies, thereby minimising the risk of pressure injury.
