HAPIs affect more than 2.5 million acute care patients each year in the U.S. alone. Standard turning protocols can be difficult for nurses to adhere to when they’re managing competing priorities, and these preventable injuries can result in significant patient harm, leading to cost increases, lengthier hospital stays, and even premature mortality. Healthcare organizations stand to incur significant financial penalties as well as damage to their reputations within the communities that they serve.
