Summary
Pressure injury prevention in rural and underserved populations presents distinct challenges, including limited access to care, provider shortages, and gaps in insurance coverage.
In this episode, Dr. Lee Ruotsi speaks with Dr. Bernadette Walters, Doctor of Nursing Practice and certified wound, ostomy, and continence nurse, about the unique barriers facing patients in rural settings. Drawing from her clinical experience in Northern New Mexico, Dr. Walters shares insights on resource limitations, the role of family caregivers, and the importance of patient education in prevention efforts.
They also discuss strategies that can be implemented in low-resource environments, from repositioning techniques to nutritional guidance, as well as the broader systemic issues affecting care delivery in these communities.
This episode offers practical perspectives for clinicians, administrators, and care teams working to improve outcomes in vulnerable populations.
