*Essential nursing care is pivotal in pressure ulcer prevention. These Mattresses will positively contribute to the outcome of a pressure ulcer prevention care plan. Education, clinical judgement and action planning based on vulnerability are fundamental factors in the prevention of pressure ulcers. The Waterflow score is a formal method of assessing risk from pressure ulcer developement, and should be used in conjunction with an informal assessment (informed nursing judgement). Informal assessment is considered to be of greater importance and clinical value.
