Description
Repositioning is all nursing activities that aim to change the posture of
bedridden patients from one side to another during the hospital stay to
minimize the pressure load on bony prominences and prevent pressure
ulcers or injuries from developing. This is a discussion paper based on
nursing and healthcare quality literature references. This paper describes
the importance of repositioning practice based on the empirical study and
experience as nurses and nurse managers. This perspective supports the
existing literature to link repositioning practice and the quality of nursing care
process indicators. Repositioning practice could be considered as an indicator
of the process of care. This paper emphasizes repositioning practice as a
fundamental nursing intervention and how it becomes meaningful for nursing
indicators. Nurses need a standard of repositioning and its measurement at
the international level.
