Abstract
This project aims to decrease hospital-acquired pressure injuries (HAPIs) in an acute care facility. This objective will be achieved by utilizing the Consolidated Framework for Implementation Research (CFIR) and the Plan-Do-Study-Act (PDSA) model to implement and evaluate the effect of a unit-specific multidisciplinary team on HAPI rates, specifically through increasing patient repositioning compliance.
