Development of Pressure Ulcers

The request was successful.

Richard Malloy

Dear Wirral University Teaching Hospital NHS Foundation Trust,

Please could you provide me with details of the number of patients reported as suffering from pressure ulcers whilst under your care in the last 5 years.

Additionally please provide me with the number of individual pressure ulcers reported within the same time frame.

I would request that these figures are broken down into yearly totals.

I understand that the development of pressure ulcers are recorded as adverse incidents and therefore the figures should be easily accessed.

Yours faithfully,

Richard Malloy
