National Pressure Injury Advisory Panel (NPIAP) Podcast with Lisa Grubb, DNP, RN, WOCN, C/DONA, CPHQ - Implementing Pressure Injury Prevention in the ER

In today's episode, Dr. Joyce Black sits down with Lisa Grubb, an assistant professor at Johns Hopkins School of Nursing, who shares her journey demonstrating how to prevent pressure injuries starting in the ER. Instead of coming in as an outsider, Lisa immersed herself in the workflow, collaborating with nurses to implement practical solutions. She explains how using realistic images helped educate staff unfamiliar with pressure injuries and highlights the importance of simple interventions, like performing skin assessments on every admitted patient. Lisa also shares her approach to working with ER teams and offers advice on bringing back actionable ideas to improve patient care. We hope you enjoy!
